Cool, calm and collected. What does this really mean? Bryan believes it’s approaching a situation KNOWING that you can, that you are able, ok and equipped for it. Focusing on what is, rather than what is not. Understanding that circumstance is not truth; it's temporary. It's knowing that you will take away knowledge and wisdom from this; it's a teacher to you. Perhaps most importantly, it's NOT PERSONAL.  In understanding this, you can approach a situation/difficult conversation from the driver’s seat, not as a helpless passenger anticipating a crash. YOU are in control of how you perceive and receive the world around you.  www.theswimmechanic.com
