    Teaching is a "Spiritual Gift" of Gary F. Patton according to Brother's and Sisters who know him well. Gary's spirit resonates with this discernment. The positive and regular Feedback Gary receives from his co-learners seems to confirm it as well. Philippians 1:9-11, especially the highlighted portions below, prayerfully guide Gary's Ministry in whatever learning environment he serves within the Body of Christ ...online or otherwise. 2012-02-17

  • Stress is the 'new weather': We all complain about it and believe there's nothing we can do about it.
  • until the accumulation reaches a high water mark that hurts our health, damages our relationships, compromises our performance and reduces our overall sense of well-being

  • Events and situations (the traffic, the deadlines, the bills, etc.), don't cause the damage; our negative reaction to these events –how we feel –do.
  • Next time you're annoyed or irritated or angry don't just talk about it, do something: Focus on the area around your heart, take a deep breath and recall a positive time in your life.

      My problem with Rhoberta's psychology when she points to "understanding" the roots of anger/rage as a route to healing is that it cannot produce freedom from your bondage. (I know this because I knew the emotional and spiritual roots of my rage for the full 25 years that I struggled with my it and that understanding didn't help me one bit. Only knowing "truth" can set you free. Understanding our past pain's roots doesn't produce truth or "freedom" from the pain. Only the truth that Jesus talks about at http://is.gd/NwDqOu can do that. gfp
  • trouble in relationships
  • one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves
  • We have to learn to manage incoming anger, too.
  • you may not have any boundaries
  • Anger is healthy. It is natural. It is a gift of perception, experience and biology
  • Gary Patton on 30 Nov 11
     
    Anger is one of the most powerful emotions and the most challenging one to manage for most people. Some of us can't "manage" it ...at all. At best, some of us can ONLY moderate our reaction to our amygdala's response to our perception of a violation of our so-called rights. That's why Essential #1 is so crucial. (I know because I fought a losing battle with anger/rage for over 25 years until recently when I re-discovered a truth that I had forgotten as a Jesus Follower. Yeh! We're NOT perfect ...just saved as someone said.)

  • Work/Life Balance Is A Myth
    • Gary Patton

      You can defeat the myth of work-life balance by striving for "harmony" not mythical "balance" is what I've been teaching in my Stress Optimization program for over a decade! Because this so-called "new idea" is not accepted in the mainstream, you'll discover below a disclaimer saying that work-life balance as a myth "expresses the writer's view alone." Duh!

      Working from home is the ideal way to overcome the MANY disadvantages in today's cruel marketplace of having a job-job! But, the emphasis needs to be on "working from home" ...not being a baby-sitter for your kids!
  • don’t say if no if you don’t have any leverage
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      I don't agree! If no needs to be said for you to be "on purpose": Say no ...regardless of your amount of leverage! Not learning how to say "no" wisely is one of the most dis-stress life-skill lacks from which many people suffer! But, ask some questions first around your options and choices when asked to do something so you not they retain control.

  • In practice, however, what I’ve seen is that people often invest that free time in doing more work.

      This is another problem caused often by excessive "Type 'A' Behaviour" or "Work Addiction" (workaholism). It does not detract from the wisdom of hiring others to free up time for you for re-creation and relaxation.
  • Their identity is rooted in work, and that’s where they want to be. Outside of work, in the complex dance of family and community responsibilities, they lose their autonomy. Their professional expertise doesn’t mean much.
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      This is not a "faulty-assumption" about the work-life myth because these kinds of so-called leaders are sick and need help ...as a psycologist or psyciatrist would agree.
  • We need better ways to manage work-life boundaries, understanding that we are subject to phases, often dictated by events out of our control, in which our work lives and personal lives ebb and flow in their demands.
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      This is why I coach my clients that the key is to seek harmony, not perfection, in the context of a clear and written "life purpose" which promotes direction, focus and the context for "saying no"!
  • Shore up the home front
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      Don't be social. Be relevant in all your key relationships! Your family and friends are what life is all about. And major de-stressors for you when you practise harmony in this area as well.
  • f you feel overworked to the point that you complain about it constantly
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      This again results from the lack of a clear purpose and harmony in fulfilling it. Alternatievly, it may be greed which also is the lack of a reasonable life purpose because there's a lot more to life than more money! How many do you think on their death bed will share: "Gee, I wish I'd spent more time at the office!" Duh!!
  • Say “no” strategically
    • Gary Patton
      Gary Patton on 30 Jan 12
       
      As I said above, it's impossible to say know wisely if you're unclear about your life purpose!
  • Quit complaining
  • Take control instead

  • Finding Social and Global Coherence
  • We are learning much more about how and why our presence, and especially our moods and emotions can affect others and how we can sense how others are feeling. Our mere presence can help others feel better and more comfortable, or ill at ease and anxious.
  • Most people understand that certain people in our lives can have a profound influence on us:

Complex living systems, including human beings, are composed of numerous dynamic, interconnected networks of biological structures and processes."
