The One Who Gets Angry Loses
In stressful situations or when making mistakes, keep your composure and remain calm. Take a moment to collect yourself. Allow your mind to settle. Focus on your breathing. Inhale deeply and exhale slowly. With each breath, release any tension or stress that may be weighing you down.
After a delicious and unique meal at one of my wife’s favorite college restaurants, we walked to the parking lot and hopped in the car. But we couldn’t get out of there; there was an 18-wheeler beer delivery truck parked at the entrance.
"No worries," we said. "He’ll be out in a bit, just doing his job."
The guy completed his delivery, went back to the truck, and prepared to back up. Just as he started moving in reverse out of the parking lot and into the street, cars from the street were trying to enter the parking lot. So he had to stop and wait for the cars to move over.
And it wasn’t their fault; they were confused as to what to do to get to the parking lot. There was only one entrance.
So we just sat there watching the truck driver getting impatient and complaining about the cars that were blocking his path. When he finally had a clear path to the street, he was so angry and frustrated that he couldn’t get out.
