When to Hit the Panic Button

i always admire ppl who handle stress reli well.

those ppl who when challenges come, they think of a solution on the spot, have plan A, B and C, and they just carry it out and sit back and wait to see what happens. The outcome, whether good or bad, they seize it as an opportunity, think of another solution, and have more Plan As, Bs and Cs.

and in that process, no worries, no getting agitated, no binging lol, maybe just bouts of adrenaline rushes that comes but goes.

heck i wish i were like that!

but i guess thru time, my stress-in-crisis level has declined from the 1st time i set foot in university while i take up some responsibilities here and there, was forced into stressful situations and learned to handle them. i used to be reli uptight about punctuality, meeting deadlines, ppl being responsible, but no thankfully i'm not such a perfectionist for details. i get reli stressed up when things dont work out the way i expect them to.

but i learnt that nobody's perfect, anything that possibly can happen can happen, sometimes things u thought impossible can also happen, and i myself aint perfect. so sometimes ppl also have to put up with my imperfections.

so i need to give leeway for mistakes, expect ppl not to be punctual for the time set but still on time for the real time lol, set very early deadlines for ppl to not meet that deadline but still adhere to the real deadline, and allow the possibles to surprise me and challenge my ability to think fast and act quickly.

i still get reli stressed and panic in as-defined-by-me-crisis situations.

but i thank God for ppl i work with who are not like me haha. i learn from them to remain calm, take things easy and hope for the best. save the panicking for when things REAlly dont work out and there are no possible Plan As, Bs, Cs. :P

well thr isnt anything impossible with prayer. God I want to not panic. :P

on a 2nd thought, does panic bring u away from danger? is there a mild sort of panic thats enough to scare u to do sth but u stil maintain enough calmness to think properly and execute. is that considered panic? Maybe its called Super Acute Panic. or Subclinical acute Panic. ok i need to stop ranting.

Volcano pls don't erupt anymore. i wana go to Bali.
