control my emotions

This list thing is helping me alot. It makes you label the things you really need to do and focus less on the stupid stuff. Since I have written this goal I have become accountable for my emotions.

I am still doing really well with this. Just being mindful of my thoughts has made a world of difference. I’ve learned negativity breeds negativity…..

I was able to calm myself down in a situation where I would’ve normally lost my temper. In the process, I realized that the person that was agitating me was actually trying to get a rise out of me. I felt great knowing that I controlled the situation and he didn’t. That it was really his problem and I didn’t have to let it upset me. It would’ve ruined my day if I had let things get out of control but because I took a step back and I thought about things before I reacted, it’s been a good day.
