-
- The "fight or flight" reaction. Appropriately stirring your mind
- but also your _body_ (according to ancient biological programming) in a
- modern situation which is mainly mental. Metaphorically, anger =
- energy, somatic and psychic. Exercise off the somatic component (e.g.
- long walks); the burning of psychic energy in thinking about the
- problem will occur automatically.

-
- Distinguish between the strategic and tactical. Allow yourself
- tactical emotionality only in private or with those you trust. As well
- as naturally turning to people who are close for emotional comfort,
- actively seek out other people who will give you the time to listen and
- act as a sounding board and help you move into coolheaded strategic
- planning. Emphasize the objective presentation of the facts as you
- know them, separate from the emotional comforting function.
-
- > .. by fighting this I could put my career at risk.
-
- You also need to balance that with considering what you put at risk
- by not fighting it.
