I am making this posting after a lot of deep internal reflection. It has taken me a long time to figure out why the events of what’s happening online as pertaining to business aka affiliate marketing/blogging industry have such a profound effect on me. An example of this could be if somebody were to write a poor review about a site I operate or working on. Under normal circumstances it would really un nerve me as I try to figure out the physiology of the user. The question I have always asked myself is why do I dwell on that one poor review instead of focusing on all the great reviews that other users write?
I have came to the conclusion that the body and the mind when put in the situation of deep frustration or anger needs some sort of closing or some way to immediate way to release the adrenaline that has built up from that situation.
To state this point, a parallel example of this was when I was growing up, I was 8 years old and playing basketball on the playground at basketball camp. When going up for a jump shot another camp mate for no reason kicks me in my shin and I fall to the ground in obvious pain. On top of that, he calls my mom fat and then proceeds to say that I am fat. (which I was fat) but that’s besides the point.
My next move was a simple punch in the face to him and then I put my leg out and tripped him making him fall then I started kicking him on the ground only to have his really heavy sister come in and take care of me by punching me in the face until I started crying. I was 8 years old I didn’t know any better yet after the fight I felt relieved maybe in a way that the issue at hand was closed and would not be opened up again.
When you are faced with challenges in an online impersonal environment after an issue is brought to the fore front in a way you feel like the issue is never really closed or it takes a lot longer to be closed in reality. You have to in my opinion find other ways to release the adrenaline, anger, fear, or sadness.
I think if every entrepreneur or person who operates an online business can connect the dots and figure out ways to manage their adrenaline not only will they be able to solve problems better but scenarios that in the past affected their performance won’t have the same effect in the future.
