Next time somebody makes you angry, sad or just pisses you off in some way. Stop, and ask yourself why you are feeling that way. How has this person got the power to make you feel that way? It’s simple, you have given them that power. You shouldn’t be angry at them, you shouldn’t get pissed off with how they are acting, you shouldn’t take their emotional baggage and make it your own, what you should be doing is taking a good hard look at yourself and asking why “you” are acting that way, why “you” are pissed off or angry. This doesn’t mean you idly stand by and let them get away with any wrong doing, it just means that if you get emotionally charged by their bad behavior then you will not see things as clearly as you would if you didn’t let your emotional reaction cloud your judgment. People are asses at the best of times, but it’s not your job to identify with their bad behavior. When you get angry with another person for what they say to you for example, this anger you feel will tell you more about yourself than the person you are angry with. Never let another person’s negative behavior become your own, let them be an ass, and be aware of your own reactions. Take responsibility for your own reactions and not another person’s actions ~ T2T
