Your Words When You Are Angry
Not
the fastest horse can catch a word spoken in anger.
Chinese Proverb
How
often do you hurt others’ feelings? You may not know every time you do so, but
the concerned person will not forget. In fact people may forget when they are
praised, but they will never forget when they are insulted. When choked with
emotions, we may not know what we say and how we express the same. It is very
difficult to build healthy relationship, but it takes only a few moments to
destroy the same. Like a broken glass,
it is impossible to patch up completely.
Perhaps
you can apply the following tips before emotionally bursting out:
·
Remain silent for a
few minutes before you speak.
·
Be conscious about the
words you are using.
·
Count ten before you
burst out. Spoken words will not come back.
·
Resolve to be pleasant
even when you are angry.
·
Recall what and how
you spoke last time, when you blew your top and the consequence.
It
makes sense to behave decently even when we are upset. It enhances our
personality and image.

my book “365 Exciting Ways to Live”)
'365 Exciting Ways to Live' is an ideal gift for any special occasion and a good reading material for supervisory development. You can also gift this book to the school or college you studied.... |
