...But your attitude about the problem. - Who said that??
-Captain Jack Sparrow
So much knowledge wrapped up in a drunken pirate but we need to appreciate what he meant. As business owners, entrepreneurs and CEOs we are meant to be leaders and leaders only. Our job is not to do any physical or production based work but to think and lead the way for others to follow us towards a greater healthier company. With leadership in mind, you must always stay calm; you see leadership attitude doesn't mean staying positive but it means staying calm.
The ability to stay calm or staying positive is what differentiates good CEOs between great ones.
If you stay calm you can think clearly and plan appropriately regardless of what the certain future is. Being positive can lead you to making the wrong desicions based on hope and might not always solve but dissolve.
Here is are my 3 steps to making calm decisions during uncertainty:
1. Stay away from peer pressure, clear away from the chaos and take a day to be away from the office so you can think clearly without tangling emotions or bad vibes from others.
2. Write down every single thought, making lists help you analyze your thoughts and make the best solutions logically not emotionally
3. Make a decision away from the chaos. Once you have come to a conclusion ensure yourself with optimizism as is the best you could and only go share your decision once is being made, so that second thoughts dont blurr your goal and logical thinking.
Stay calm my friends.
&
Happy Fourth of July.
