I definitively know what she talked about with the brain losing function because of anxiety. I wrote my BA thesis recently and especially during the last few days before I had to hand it in my anxiety was through the roof. I had panic attacks every hour and the panic never really left. I tried to work on my paper but I was unable to work for longer periods of time because my brain just stopped working. I felt so out of control. It was terrible and I FELT terrible. Stressing and, as an extreme form of that, anxiety really are a hindrance in life.
Alright , here's the summary for comment scrollers. Dr. Darria Long - Speaker What is is talking about ? It's about how to handle days when there are many many tasks that needs to be done RIGHT NOW!!! , deadlines are almost dead , your family needs your time your boss wants to bank on you for that important presentation , its overwhelmingly busy , its intense. Ok, what the effective way to deal with such days ?? It's a 3 step process . 1- Triage (Prioritize you check list Red task >> Blue Tasks >> Green Tasks ) 2- Plan the daily trivial things so that they don't exhaust your brain and prepare in advance for the upcoming chaos. 3- Get out of your own head , Zoom Out .
Train your mind to stay calm in every situation. Calm cool and calculated. That was 1 of the best I've ever seen. I always thrived under "Crazy mode" loved it. Crazier the better.
I really enjoyed the talk, as soon as I watched the coloring triage i started applying it to my life, soon later i found myself back to the good old Priority matrix. I think its the same concept
I mentor people and talk about this, preparing now and putting systems in place so things just happen, to make life easier. It is easier said than done to get people on board with this concept.
Every day brings new reds so if you focus on them which makes sense...you never get time to get to the yellows and certainly not the greens. It makes me stressed to have a long list of undone items and if you ignore a green long enough it becomes a red.
I understand the positive comments on here and respect the ideas presented in the talk. I also want to say that her speaking style caused me to feel stress and anxiety. Did anyone else feel like that?
and even later I agree. Why? She presented good information however her style also made me feel uncomfortable. Her body posture with elbows wide was unusual and like akimbo posturing (telling you off/power position), slightly leaning forward, lots of finger stress points - all an authoritarian position. This was contrasted by her friendly tone which was a bit self righteous. This gave it a motherly I know all style (saved several patients along the way) and do what i am telling you. So while the ideas were good her style could create tension in audience members.
She’s actually been stressed out all along. You can be ready but highly alerted and guarded meanwhile which is also stress. The tactics essentially solve problems not necessarily stress.
The key to being "stress-free" then is not to have any stress (which is impossible except if youre crazy or dead) but being "stress-free" is your ability to solve or adapt to stress.
Ok. This maybe helpful if you sign up for a career in the ER or any other profession that has times of overwhelming demand. But I think more and more people want to know how to remove stress from their life instead of prioritizing it.
You can't never, truly and fully remove stress from your life. You can only learn to prioritize what matters and not go crazy with stress, but work with it.
I became anxious watching her walk around on those super high heels. I kept expecting her to fall. Plus, she's going need a podiatrist! Her teaching is exactly right, however
Inspiring talk Ted. Always enjoyed watching your talks and got inspired to build my own talk channel. Give a thumbs up if you have be transformed to by TED.
I have work in an emergency oriented environment. The big pic, if your life is as full as an emergency room, change your job. Should your life be that crazy? What's so life and death? School fundraisers? I'm going to arrange my values so I can mediate, quiet the noise, ask myself.....when people look down at me in a coffee, what will they say.
What was she talking about? The whole time I was figuring out her dress, which was looking red from the near camera angle while from the far camera angle it was looking orange. why?
Travis Ocarina I don’t know about cameras and lighting (I get nervous whenever someone hands me their camera to take a picture of them), but your answer has inspired me to read up on it, just ‘cause.... 📸💡 🙂
Very good, a very very good one indeed ! Thank you for sharing your experiences - in the day-to-day life, one really needs to be ready with such strategies. One question though - does meditation help to prepare one's mind for such situations ?
Absolutely. Meditation increases your ability to focus where needed. Especially in the step 3 - getting out of your head and focusing on what matters the most. With regular meditation, you'll get to focus faster and deeper than otherwise.
Not for me, sorry. Trite messages dressed in the mode of amateur dramatics. Ostensibly - like too many of these talks - it is a marketing exercise: profile-raising to sell more books, or to advance the brand of an individual's career, or to tick the boxes needed for a highly-credentialled CV (hey, I've done a TED talk too'). There probably would have been more impact if Dr Long spoke compassionately, from the heart, with humility, and without histionics about some cases she's faced in the ER, and the lessons learnt from being in attendance.
Id like to point out how long people wait in a triage or ER situation so she's not going to be the best person to discuss organisation and prioritisation
I don’t think you understood the video. She’s basically saying that you can’t attend to everyone all at once in the ED so they prioritize emergent cases. This is not to say you can’t be upgraded to a red if you suddenly developed chest pain while waiting to be seen in the ER for a cut in your finger. This can be applied in real life, there are some things that requires immediate attention like taking care of a sick child versus outing with the guys (or whatever is your priority vs wants). The outing with the guys can always be put off. A sick child can go down quickly so you need to focus on this first. Sure the guys need to wait, but they are not gonna die. So what if people wait long in the ER? If you are waiting, be grateful because that means you are not in a life-threatening situation. (just to clarify, I’m not encouraging people to fake their chest pain to be seen immediately for a cut in their finger. Faking a chest pain may get you attention quicker, but you will also go through unnecessary tests, pokes, and you will have to pay for bills you probably didn’t have to pay had you not faked it, aside from you are cutting in front of other people whose lives could only be saved by getting immediate attention, and it could be your someone’s friends, loved ones, or yours. Please be patient in the ER, or go to urgent care for your cut in the finger.
Own the busy, but not the crazy of "crazy busy." Be prepared because you know what can happen. Plan to default to better/best results. (I was a systems controller and that was my general method.)

This is one of the most useful TED Talks I have ever seen!
Dr. Long is an excellent speaker!
Well said. I could never work in the ER, though, but I admire and appreciate those heroes that could deal with stress, especially in these times.
I definitively know what she talked about with the brain losing function because of anxiety.

She seems like a very balanced women!!
Thanks for giving GREAT life advice!!!💖👏
seems like....
Dan Floros Yes I don’t know her but I said seems by the way she speaks and carries herself. The word seems is not an insult.
Thanks
10:51 because you see we all get nervous we all get scared but it's what you do next that matters
This was a great talk. Let's be more ready.
Alright , here's the summary for comment scrollers.
Dr. Darria Long - Speaker
What is is talking about ?
It's about how to handle days when there are many many tasks that needs to be done RIGHT NOW!!! , deadlines are almost dead , your family needs your time your boss wants to bank on you for that important presentation , its overwhelmingly busy , its intense.
Ok, what the effective way to deal with such days ??
It's a 3 step process .
1- Triage (Prioritize you check list Red task >> Blue Tasks >> Green Tasks )
2- Plan the daily trivial things so that they don't exhaust your brain and prepare in advance for the upcoming chaos.
3- Get out of your own head , Zoom Out .
Train your mind to stay calm in every situation.
Calm cool and calculated. That was 1 of the best I've ever seen. I always thrived under "Crazy mode" loved it. Crazier the better.
I really enjoyed the talk, as soon as I watched the coloring triage i started applying it to my life, soon later i found myself back to the good old Priority matrix. I think its the same concept
I feel like the anger and anxiety is what fuels me and helps to get me through the chaos.
Don Schilling by definition if you are operating under those emotions, you are not using the most effective, planful and rational areas of your brain.

One of the better Tedx presentations.
Big-up Dr. Long
I mentor people and talk about this, preparing now and putting systems in place so things just happen, to make life easier. It is easier said than done to get people on board with this concept.
Every day brings new reds so if you focus on them which makes sense...you never get time to get to the yellows and certainly not the greens. It makes me stressed to have a long list of undone items and if you ignore a green long enough it becomes a red.
that means you're not proritizing correctly
exactly so, Jeff H. it'a a dilemma, no?
Make sure to spend a few minutes a day in total silence and listen to your intuition.
👏 I appreciate every single word she said
The Noise of stress and failure is a big one
What a great speaker! She took us with her the whole talk.
I understand the positive comments on here and respect the ideas presented in the talk. I also want to say that her speaking style caused me to feel stress and anxiety. Did anyone else feel like that?
that is exactly how i felt
and even later I agree. Why? She presented good information however her style also made me feel uncomfortable. Her body posture with elbows wide was unusual and like akimbo posturing (telling you off/power position), slightly leaning forward, lots of finger stress points - all an authoritarian position.

So while the ideas were good her style could create tension in audience members.
She’s actually been stressed out all along. You can be ready but highly alerted and guarded meanwhile which is also stress. The tactics essentially solve problems not necessarily stress.
......I have just saved your talk in my "breathe" file. Thank you Dr.Long.
The key to being "stress-free" then is not to have any stress (which is impossible except if youre crazy or dead) but being "stress-free" is your ability to solve or adapt to stress.
Indeed. Work on your mastery of stress management, not the utopic ideal of a total lack of stress and/or stressors.
Definition of boss lady 🙌🏼
Ok. This maybe helpful if you sign up for a career in the ER or any other profession that has times of overwhelming demand. But I think more and more people want to know how to remove stress from their life instead of prioritizing it.
You can't never, truly and fully remove stress from your life. You can only learn to prioritize what matters and not go crazy with stress, but work with it.
What a powerful and needed talk, thank you so much Dr. Daaria Long!
The good Dr. is a great communicator.
Smart & Busy
🔥🔥 This deserves more views!
A great storyteller. I will search for her book at our Brookfield, Illinois Library.
did u find it? whats the title?
U are such a great character
What an extraordinary speech!
8:06 because if you're ready for crazy then it isn't in fact crazy ...
I became anxious watching her walk around on those super high heels. I kept expecting her to fall. Plus, she's going need a podiatrist! Her teaching is exactly right, however
What would happen if triage was taught at an early age?😊🙏
Inspiring talk Ted. Always enjoyed watching your talks and got inspired to build my own talk channel. Give a thumbs up if you have be transformed to by TED.
BusiMinds Talk that’s great!
Gracias!
Fabulous! Excellent storytelling. Useful information.
Amazing!!! God bless you

We know she's right, we're sure we should prioritise and triage, but I garantee we will most deffinitly not.
I wish i could understand the four example she gave of time management 😕 ....I came here hoping more...but yeah it was good..
Thanks
Thank you ❤️
What was she talking about?
The whole time I was figuring out her dress, which was looking red from the near camera angle while from the far camera angle it was looking orange. why?
Two cameras. Two white balance settings. No correction in post-production.
Travis Ocarina I don’t know about cameras and lighting (I get nervous whenever someone hands me their camera to take a picture of them), but your answer has inspired me to read up on it, just ‘cause.... 📸💡 🙂

How knows Dr. DarriaLong
Sounds like she triaged her own stage anxiety, shut down her human brain, and channeled Alexa.

Oy!
I would put her in the crazy category.
Why ?
@@daisybuchanan8205 a tad overdramatic imo. Like she read a book on storytelling and took it a bit too far.
2Hedz she’s fine
@@2hedz77 too right! while her teaching is correct, she seems to me like an ER doc who really wants to be an actress. edit: ah, she's already on tv!
Id like to point out how long people wait in a triage or ER situation so she's not going to be the best person to discuss organisation and prioritisation
I don’t think you understood the video. She’s basically saying that you can’t attend to everyone all at once in the ED so they prioritize emergent cases. This is not to say you can’t be upgraded to a red if you suddenly developed chest pain while waiting to be seen in the ER for a cut in your finger. This can be applied in real life, there are some things that requires immediate attention like taking care of a sick child versus outing with the guys (or whatever is your priority vs wants).

So what if people wait long in the ER? If you are waiting, be grateful because that means you are not in a life-threatening situation.
(just to clarify, I’m not encouraging people to fake their chest pain to be seen immediately for a cut in their finger. Faking a chest pain may get you attention quicker, but you will also go through unnecessary tests, pokes, and you will have to pay for bills you probably didn’t have to pay had you not faked it, aside from you are cutting in front of other people whose lives could only be saved by getting immediate attention, and it could be your someone’s friends, loved ones, or yours. Please be patient in the ER, or go to urgent care for your cut in the finger.
