Book description
A proven therapeutic method that channels workplace anxiety into
powerful, confident performance
Millions of people are afraid of work. The situations they fear may
be different-public speaking (e. g., presentations and speeches),
meetings, conference calls, new assignments, performance reviews,
promotions or praise, client consultations, team projects, and so on.
But the feeling is often the same: some combination of obsessive
worry, fear of being noticeably nervous, clammy hands, racing
thoughts, sweating, blushing, heart palpitations, trouble breathing,
and more.
That feeling is called "workplace anxiety." And Work
Makes Me Nervous is the cure. An effective self-empowerment
training program, Work Makes Me Nervous lays out a proven
therapeutic method for dismantling the wall between you and your
ability to excel at work. The program trains you to:
- Channel workplace anxiety into powerful performance
- Identify anxiety symptoms and pinpoint where fears originate
- Achieve a High Performance Mind through a technique called Mind
States Balance
- Abandon fear and ride the wave of adrenaline through every work situation
Filled with real stories of real people and a 21-day developmental
program of practical exercises and effective stress-management
techniques, Work Makes Me Nervous will enable you to finally
say, "I can handle whatever situations come my way."
