    Have you ever gotten irritated or frustrated with other people? It just kind of simmers there...

    That’s bad news! There is a way to get rid of it, and that’s for you to decide that it’s not worth the pricetag to be irritated or frustrated or angry at anybody at work or home.

    Just try looking at the people around you as if they were infants or as if they were ninety years old. You don’t get angry at babies and very old people, because you don’t give them any responsibility for changing. You just assume that they can’t help their behavior, so you don’t worry about it. And you don’t let it get to you.

    So why don’t we make the same application and decide not to get mad at anybody? How about it? It will bring blessings to you every day.
