Can destroy our most important relationships
Can ruin otherwise fine situations
Can spring from us without warning
Someone presses our buttons and off we go
Caught unprepared and off we go anger boiling over
Fighting to the death over trivialities
Tired of this?
Then start by being wrong a few times
Try being wrong and saying so even if you do not believe it
Why?
Because one of the sources of our temper is our defending our space, in this case what we think is right
It doe snot matter if you are right when you destroy another person or attack them with violence
Be wrong say so
Take a deep breath, turn around, breath deeply, then face the other person and say I am wrong
Clearly simply in those words I am wrong please excuse me sorry
Yes try the word sorry as well
Move into areas where you accept that it does not matter if you are right or wrong
It matters more that you attack another human
Decide to stop it
Not tomorrow, now today
Practice saying to yourself I am wrong, sorry
Do it
Nothing changes without our deciding to change
Your call
