Take a Chill Pill

What do you do when you feel strongly about something and/ or against someone?

If, say, during a training you disagree with the content?

Would you leap up and shout "this is the wrong approach!"

or Would you interject and ask a question "What do you think if we consider this approach instead?"

I would want to use (as much as possible) and would like to remind myself to use the second approach.

A statement launched in anger can be damaging sometimes and can reflect on us instead of the other person. Especially in this day and age, launching words at the wrong place and/ or the wrong time may just bring us unnecessary/ unwelcome fame/ notoriety.

"Medical authorities have cited relaxation as an aid to sufferers of heart trouble. They have prescribed relaxation as a relief- even a cure for people in high pressure occupations who have heart trouble."
