When something annoys you
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becoming annoyed helps you identify changes and improvements you can make. Staying annoyed, however, doesn’t do you any good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you feel annoyed, notice what your annoyance is telling you, and consider what you can do about it. Then, let the annoyance go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuing to be annoyed just drains your energy and contaminates your attitude. Don’t do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, just smile to yourself, and feel the power of your own choice. Then choose to move your thoughts on past whatever triggered your annoyance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have higher thoughts to think, better ways to feel, more useful things to do. You never have to let some little imperfection ruin any more of your precious time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plenty of things can be annoying. And you can quickly move far beyond every one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
