How To Control Your Emotional At Working Place ?

World's economy crisis caused a lots of workers work under pressure ! If you are one of them, Cry Baby, Not !

It comes as no surprise that crying at work is frowned upon but does it truly spell the end of your career or your chances of moving up the corporate ladder ? Well, though tears are still seen as "unprofessional", it's however gaining more acceptance at work. "Saying that having emotions is inappropriate," says Laurent Duperval, communications coach and consultant. "Crying is the espression of an emotion, just like any other, except that it has a negative stigma associated with it."
It's of course still best to leave the crying in close quarters but if you find your lower lip quaver and uncooperative tears spill over despite your best efforts, know that you didn't just commit career suicide.
We can't exactly control our emotions at all times especially when work gets personal but there are ways to avoid putting yourself in the "tear zone". So, wise up with our tips below !

Be Prepared
If you suspect you're going to be in an emotional conversation, plan ahead. Map out what your main points are and what you want to say. That's a reliable way to remain focused without becoming emotional. A lot of people tend to get emotional during performance reviews. Instead of focusing on how the review makes you feel, go in knowing what to say when you don't receive a glowing review or get the raise and promotion you thought you so deserved. So, plan what you would say if rejection or criticism comes your way.
One good approach to take is to ask your employer what needs to be done in order to be better.

Excuse Yourself
If you feel your emotional getting stronger and your eyes brimming with tears, excuse yourself. Lois Frankel, author of Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, says it's perfectly acceptable to say, "You can see i'm having strong feelings about this. I'm going to leave for a few minutes to compose myself. "Not only will it make you feel better, it'll make the people around you less uncomfortable too.

Focus On Content
It's not unusual to get emotional when your boss tells you you've missed your goals. Try to remain focused on the content of what your boss is saying instead of how it's making you feel, says Susan Picascia, a psychotherapist and business coach based in Los Angeles. Instead of saying, "I feel bad because I didn't do well." tell your boss."I hear that in the review that you'd like me to manage my time more efficiently. Here are the things i can do about it."

Focus On Breathing
Don't make it too obvious and weird, but one way to control emotions is through focusing on your breathing, says Picascia. "This is a skill, and it's one that you have to practise." she says."Build it through getting a grip over your body. Find your breath and de-personalise."
Conclusion :
As in most work situations, co-workers and bosses expect you to be professional. If you cry when your boss reprimands or gives you a negative review, you're probably not earning the best reputation. But do remember that tears aren't a sign of weakness. So, learn to make it wise decision to take tears where you see fit.
