Handling Difficult Situations

This week, Carrie Garman, CCCOnline’s Human Sciences Chair, has a reflection and a question for all of you.

“How I handle a difficult situation:
Most of the time I like to go up the incline – I live in Manitou Springs. The incline is the old railway up to the top of Pikes Peak. It is extremely steep and the steps have been made of old railway ties and rocks. I usually pack my back pack up and run to the bottom of it from my house and then see how fast I can get to the top. The ascent is over 2200 feet and the top is at about 8500 feet.

I always feel better at the top, and have absolutely no energy left to be upset about anything.”

How do you handle a difficult professional situation?
