| 0:00.0 | Yo, today's QOTS. You are responsible for the energy you bring into this room. Here we go |
| 0:30.3 | Welcome back to the quarter of the day show I'm your host Sean Croxton, a Sean Croxton.com. We |
| 0:37.9 | got Brunei Brown back on the QOD stage and today she is going to share three strategies that |
| 0:44.8 | you can use today. So you can stay calm, remain emotionally intelligent and take responsibility for |
| 0:52.3 | your energy when things get uncertain and situations get anxious. Brunei Brown's coming up. |
| 1:00.9 | So first step is who we are. Second step is about cultivating calm and stillness. |
| 1:06.6 | So one of the things I learned in the research is that calm people share things in common |
| 1:14.8 | and they share actionable strategies in common. I think there are probably some temperaments |
| 1:20.5 | that lend themselves to calm more than others but calm is a practice and here's what includes. |
| 1:26.4 | Calm people breathe and I don't mean just like the rest of us breathe. I mean they are obnoxious |
| 1:33.4 | breathers. They breathe and they are comfortable in silence. So for example one thing that sparks |

| 2:02.2 | unit next month. They're laying off everybody in the unit. Here's what calm people do. |
| 2:08.4 | They breathe. The one minute they breathe it feels like an hour to me but just that |
| 2:28.6 | it's very likely that person does well I don't know exactly what's happening |
| 2:32.0 | but what if that happened? Wouldn't that be a nightmare? So they breathe. The second thing they do |
| 2:42.5 | is they always come back to anxiety provoking information with questions. It's amazing. I mean this |
| 2:51.7 | was like I saw it in the first couple of people who were really calm then I saw it in the next 10 |
| 2:56.8 | people and then the following 100 people. John know people who can just walk into a room and |
| 3:02.0 | bring calm and perspective without even sometimes saying a word. Yeah my husband's built like that |
