I think

I am getting better at this. I know the following is extremely trivial, but here is an example. If my brother starts poking me non-stop, I usually freak out within the first few pokes. However, when the opposite happens, I can poke him forever and he’d go on with whatever he’s doing as if I’m not poking him. Lately though, he’d start poking me and I’d pretend he’s not doing it. He’d say something like ‘wow, you’re not even getting upset!’ and eventually give up. I am also trying to use the whole ‘count to 10’ idea to calm my nerves when I feel impatient.
