Sooner or later, you’re going to hit a “crunch point” in your career. Everyone does eventually. In fact, on average a personal or professional crisis will probably crop up in your life every two to three months. That shouldn’t be a surprise but what’s important is how you respond to those challenges. The only way you will ever realize your full potential is by learning to respond and react effectively to those challenges whenever and wherever they arrive.
Over the long haul, to be successful you need to develop the ability to solve problems when the pressure is on. If you can learn how to rise to the challenge and keep moving onwards and upwards even each time things go wrong, you place yourself in the best possible position to excel in the future.
“The key to performing at your best during the crunch times of your life is for you to focus single-mindedly on the solutions rather than the problems. The more you think about possible solutions, the more solutions will occur to you – and the better they will be. The more you think about solutions rather than problems, the more positive, the more focused, and creative you will become. The more you think in terms of specific actions you can take, the more in control you will be.”
– Brian Tracy
“The obstacles you face are mental barriers that can be broken by adopting a more positive approach.”
– Clarence Blasier
“Circumstances do not make the man; they merely reveal him to himself.”
– Greek philosopher Epictetus
“I don’t think there is any other quality so essential to success as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature.”
– John D. Rockefeller
“Within every problem or difficulty lies the seed of an equal or greater benefit or opportunity.”
– Napoleon Hill
“Crunch points are inevitable, unavoidable, and unpredictable. The way you behave in a crunch can build you up or tear you down. Your ability to handle a crisis effectively is the most identifiable characteristic of leadership. From now on, whenever you have a problem or a difficulty, look upon it as a special opportunity that is sent to help you become stronger and wiser, and to be more successful and influential in the future. Resolve in advance that no matter what happens to you today or in the future, you will remain calm. You will take a deep breath, get the facts, and assert control.”
– Brian Tracy

1. Stay calm
When you face a crisis, pause before you respond. Close your eyes, breathe deeply and visualize yourself being successful. Resolve to make this challenge a stepping stone to success rather than the end of the story.
The natural tendency in any crisis is to react immediately in a negative way. That can actually end up making things even worse. You’re far better off pausing first, and thinking things through clearly and rationally. Clear your mind and make certain you don’t end up with some knee-jerk reaction or comment which makes the situation worse rather than better.
It’s alright to feel disappointed or frustrated, but remind yourself it’s your response that’s important, not the situation which has arisen. Therefore, you should:
