Dealing With Frustration
If you're like most people, you have your bouts of frustration, for sure. Not everyone handles these episodes in the same manner, as you most likely already know. One of the biggest problems is that some people don't seem to get a grip on the fact that they do have a choice as to how to react to people, situations, and events.
We learned how to be angry at a very early age - we cried and, at the time, probably got what we wanted as a result just so we'd be quiet. Hmmm...does that say something? Perhaps that alone extinguishes some of the wonder as to why using our little frenzies when things go wrong has been something worth holdingonto.
Anger and frustration are okay for starters - if used properly. But they are meant to be short-lived. If not, they grow into resentment and all kinds of problems can result - and that's more than just probable. It's a given. And it's not healthy. Can you see that?
This may or may not be astonishing to you, but virtually every emotional and physical disorder can be traced back to anger. To some that's startling. So why do we hold onto it for so long?
Well, as mentioned above, anger was something we learned at an early age. Thing is, the majority of us never really learned how to deal with it in a healthy manner - and that's not good. As a matter of fact, we've gotten so good at using our anger as a means of dealing that the effects of this potentially disastrous emotion are often never noticed by us! Then it should be no surprise that emotional and physical disorders result, since the warning signs are quite often not there.
Isn't it time you, once and for all, get a handle on dealing with the anger, frustration, and resentment in your life? The benefits are so huge, they're unexplainable. In addition, it's not just you who will benefit. Family members, friends, co-workers, intimate partners, will not only notice the difference in you, but self-control can be catchy. You are sure to serve as a role model for those around you.
It doesn't have to be a difficult task, you know. As a matter of fact, there is kit designed to make the process as easy as can be. Dr.Sandra Nelson of www.Tell-Me-About-It.com has put together a kit that is so user friendly, your progress is guaranteed. And, yes, the site guarantees your success.
First off, once you receive delivery of your package, you won't have to go beyond opening the envelope to sense that you've got something different in your hands. In addition to being accompanied with some pretty nice goodies, the workbook is written in such a way that no one will be intimidated by its language. It is a priority of Dr. Sandy (as she is so often referred to) to create tools that will be put to use. And, yes, each one is put together with her own care. They are meant to work for everyone who puts his or her hands on them - and they do.
The name of the anger management kit by Dr. Sandy is "It's A Mad House" - you can have your copy delivered to you within just a matter of a few days by visiting http://tell-me-about-it.com/2itsamadhouse.shtml to learn more. Surely, you will be glad that you made the investment. And, considering its effectiveness, the price is unbelievable. So do yourself and your loved ones a favor and get your copy.Better still, pick up a few as gifts - the thanks you'll receive will be priceless.
When you really get down to it, it makes no sense whatsoever to avoid the decision to take some action toward the mastery of your emotions. So often we hear others (we all seem to do it at times) complain about how frustrated or upset they are about something and it's obvious that how they feel was caused by someone or something outside themselves - according to them. This is simply not true. It's easy to "pass the buck" when it comes to blame; however, there is only one person who can be the master of what's between your own two ears - and that's you.
Once you give yourself the privilege of a little self study, you know what will happen? You'll want to learn more - it will be like a light that goes off in your head - you know, like those "A-HAA!" moments when you say "Why in the world did I not know this stuff about myself before!"
Well, friend, there's no time like the present to give yourself the luxury of getting to know yourself a little better. Think you're an alright person now? Wait to you really get to know you - what a genuine treat!
