GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF!!!

Take a deep breath.  Count to ten.  Twirl your fidget spinner a few more times.  Try to disguise your fury with another fake, forced smile. Is it helping?  Or, does it all just feel like another futile attempt to stop that speeding freight train of emotions within you, threatening to flatten your peace of mind like a pancake? 

You have a split second to decide how you’ll react.  What will you do?  Or, to put it a better way, how will it end? With you, victorious?  Standing at the finish line, looking back on your course of action with pride and satisfaction?  Or, with you, picking up the pieces of another relationship, project, or bridge that you’ve burnt down? Right now, you’re not sure.  You just have one question:

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO CALM DOWN?

Why does it so often feel like an IMPOSSIBLE feat to regulate your emotions?  Wouldn’t it be nice to be just a little more in control?  Wouldn’t your life be better?  Good news… it’s possible.

Think for just a moment about all the situations where this ability would come in oh-so-handy:

• When you’re at the supermarket, and your kids are screaming, causing a scene, and everyone in the store is looking at you like you’re a three-eyed Martian. 
• When you’re late for work, and some idiot is driving slow in the fast lane, texting his buddy some stupid message that just can’t wait (probably, about what he’d like to have written on his tombstone).
• When you’re sitting behind your computer, which has just crashed for the fourth time this week, costing you HOURS of unsaved work.
• When your spouse is acting like a know-it-all, and everything in you is tempted to give him the best speech you’ll ever regret.

Do you really want to keep swinging a giant wrecking ball into things that you’ve worked so hard to build?  Probably not.  It’s time to calm down. Quickly. Eff
