  + stars: | 2024-05-07 | by ( Ashton Jackson | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
The best strategy for tackling those moments of stress actually involves some preparation: Highly successful people get ahead of their unsteadiness with a key mindset shift, according to Lisa Feldman Barrett, a neuroscientist, author and psychology professor at Northeastern University. They don't see stress as something bad to be overcome, but instead as something natural that can be managed. Instead, she recommends doing exercises beforehand to practice doing what unnerves you, and to help train yourself to understand and handle the stress differently. "It's a shift from making the sensation go away to getting better at performing while I'm feeling the sensation," he said.

☆ Wharton psychologist Adam Grant's tip for an 'amazing' cover letter: Admit if you are 'not quite the fit'
  + stars: | 2023-10-31 | by ( Ece Yildirim | In Ecedyildirim | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Wharton organizational psychologist Adam Grant recently told CNBC's "Squawk Box" about an 'amazing' cover letter he read a few years ago, where the applicant did not have all the qualifications listed. Instead of ignoring her weaknesses, she addressed the elephant in the room by admitting that she was "not quite the fit." I don't have the years of experience and I don't have these skills," Grant said the cover letter read. "She got the job [after that cover letter] and she crushed it." Some of the most in-demand soft skills like time management and critical thinking can be developed in non-position-specific experiences that you can instead demonstrate in your cover letter.

☆ The No. 1 trait you need to be more successful than most, says workplace expert: It's 'the single most important differentiator'

"Confidence is serious business, and the single most important differentiator in the workplace," Low-Kramen wrote in her book, which published in February. Stop apologizing unnecessarilyFor many people, saying "I'm sorry" after certain situations, even those that don't require an apology, is second nature. This is especially true for women, Low-Kramen wrote. Rather than saying 'I'm sorry, we need to reschedule the appointment,' say 'Thank you for working with my schedule.'" Instead, "slow it down, lower the pitch of your voice and turn up the volume" to be taken more seriously, Low-Kramen wrote.
