Ep. 203 – Hugh Ingalls – Stoneville Story #2

Ambiguity is tolerated by some better than others. Small experiences of uncertainty can be exhilarating and bring us the joy of surprise. Large and prolonged periods of uncertainty can cause debilitating anxiety, leaving people paralyzed. In this interview, Hugh Ingalls and I discuss nine tactics people can use when living in uncertainty to help stay present and reduce anxiety:Draw a circle. Draw a second circle inside the first circle. Write down the things you can control in the inner circle and things you can’t control in the outer circle. Keep your focus on what you can control.Ask yourself an empowering question (e.g., “How can I do this right?”)  and let the brain do its job.Put yourself in the mindset of contribution (rather than competition).Name it and tame it. Recognize the areas of stress, acknowledge them and thank them for what they are teaching you.Break free from the negative voices in your head by choosing to direct your attention by anchor   in your body (e.g., notice the energy in your hand).Smile, improve your posture, and — if you can — dance! Raise your hands quickly above your head to shoot your anxiety out the top. These things are incompatible with anxiety.Imagine yourself “flipping the switch” to let go of the outcome and embrace the challenge of uncertainty.Put a rubber band around your wrist, when you go into anxious thoughts, snap the rubber band and come back to the present.Focus your mind on life design.About Hugh IngallsHugh Ingalls headshot B&amp;W.pngHugh S.
