A reflection on annoyances...
I am doing the exercise that I sent out on Monday -- Managing Annoyances -- and have two observations that I wanted to share with you.
(No, I'm not going to tell you the number of times that I get annoyed a day as that might lead to competition.)
Here are two things that I've found: - I want to record WHY I am annoyed every time that I get annoyed. I really want to be able to justify my irk.
- The simple act of taking out my note-pad to record my annoyances short-circuits my usually path of making a snarky comment. As Victor Frankl said: Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
I hope you are trying this exercise and learning about you -- after all, what is more important to learn?
