Jennifer Angel's Love Notes |
When is a problem really a problem?
Not everything in life is worth going into battle for, in fact, there are very
few things in life, which are worth getting angry about, but you do not want to
be a doormat either, you do want to keep your sense of self intact, so how do
you know when to go with the follow and when to go to battle?
The answers to these questions are different for everyone, and only you can
answer them for yourself, but there are a few things you can do to help get
clarity on how you feel.
1. Start a journal so you write your feelings down every time you feel like
going into battle. Maybe it is in fact bringing up something else that needs to
be dealt with and not the actual situation.
2. When you think of the things, people and situations that push your buttons,
isolate what you can compromise on, and what is unacceptable behavior. Thinking
this through, you will find where your breaking point is.
3. Talk to your friend or partner or whoever it is that is causing you stress to
tell them how you feel.
In the end, the more you know about yourself the more you can gain control of
your emotions. This is an area of self-work that can benefit you in every areas
o f your life and result in enriching the life of yourself and the people you
share life with. Take the time to get to know you better.
