video: What to do about emotional pressure
I recently gave a talk titled "Standing up to emotional pressure." This has turned out to be a very popular topic which many people can relate to.In my talk, I give an example where I faced a major challenge with a friend. I discuss how I "survived" the situation in a way that not only relieved the pressure on me, but enabled my friend to grow.
Then to close, I give a general model of the three resources that one can draw on when facing emotional pressure.
Enjoy the talk.

Ah, very interesting topic indeed. I too am learning to stand up for myself and confront emotional pressure--you're right, people don't always like it...often they are shocked by your behavior because you are changing the status quo and thus, they aren't automatically getting their way. I was also intrigued by the concept that standing up to emotional pressure is an athletic endeavor. I agree...I think the most successful people are physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually fit. Personally, I'm not there yet, but as my body is getting more toned, as I take the time to get enough sleep and eat well, and as I nuture my personal relationships, my confidence grows and thus makes it easier for me to live with the emotional pressures we all face each day.
Thank you for this very interesting and thought provoking topic.
P.S. In the future, you might consider a different video format or more than one format...that .wmv format (evil Microsoft) is so cruel to us Mac users.
