One Leadership Tip: Day 128: NEVER Get Too HIGH, NEVER Get Too LOW

As a human being, it is easy to feel high when we think that we are on top of everything – thriving career, blooming business, smooth relationship and everything is going according to plan. But there are also times that we easily feel too low when the results did not meet our expectations, leaving us discouraged and frightened of our future possibilities.

According to research, our body produces hormones such as dopamine that make us feel good every time we have success, it is our brain’s reward system. On the other hand, happy hormones may go downhill when we are disappointed with the outcomes of our efforts. Basically, it is perfectly normal for people to feel such emotions as it is associated with our whole being.

As a leader, the biggest challenge in every scenario is how to stay unshaken and composed no matter the end result is. When things are going great or downhill, an effective leader projects calmness and in that way people around him will manifest that same level of reaction.
