Sometimes in life, things do not go your way. While this may bug you at times, what might really irritate you are people who do not respond the way you want them too. Free riders, disruptive and distracting people often fall in this category. How do you respond to such stuff?
It is of utmost importance to keep your cool. It is bad enough people are disrupting dynamics by not contributing. You need to keep your head sane so that you can still do something, rather than go all berzerk about the problematic fella and in the process, join the disruptive group.
If you are really super irritated by that someone, sit down. If you’re sitting down, lie down. Tell yourself not to sound like a clown by immediately voicing out your angst at the person. Advice the person if need be, but do so without your own emotions engulfing everything.
Two wrongs don’t make one right. Marty took 3 whole movies to learn not to retalliate. You can do so in 3 minutes. Be cool. Keep your cool.
