How do you manage your temper?

Nope, not that easy but there are times that I just erupt. Back then, I used to be very emotional and can't find any ways to deal or control my temper. I guess it's because of too much stress, from work and daily problems that I almost had enough of it. But I can now safely say that I could deal with my emotions fairly, without even hurting someone or cursing. Still, there are moments that I just explode and that's when I take a long breath to manage my temper..

Our emotions play a major role in how we manage our lives lyn. I don't get angry much. There is no reason and things aren't that serious. I always try to defuse the anger before it takes control. I don't worry about the little things in life. When people are late for appointments, it's usually because they don't respect you or your time. It's nothing personal. They don't respect their own time. I don't judge them. If someone is too terribly late I tell them so and we deal with it, hopeing it won't happen again. If it does, I let them know it can't continue. My time is precious. I never worry about what people say behind my back. I'm not responsible for that and can't control it. As long as I know me, I know what's real and don't care what people might say behind my back. I'm not an insecure person, so it doesn't matter. I don't have time to think about things like that.

Yes, everyone has his own temper and we all have sometimes when losing our temper. This is normal. But I do think that we should do our best to control our tempers all the time. I personally am not easily get irritated often but I do lose my mind sometimes for some reasons. I feel angry when waiting for someone that has been very late in my appointment, especially for no good reasons. I personally try to hide my angries in mind and not to complain on others.

I hate to wait, and i am an impatient personality. But i try to keep time. I will be punctual.. If you ask me to be there in a place for 10 AM, i will be there sharp on 10 AM.. and some how i have managed to do so all these days, but this has an exclusion.. when i a go for office.. So, i expect others to be punctual also,and this gives me impatience and some how lose temper, when someone just don't turn on time.

sometimes when im tired from work i tend to be ill tempered but i try not to be one by having a quick nap when i reach home a 15minute nap is enough to recharge your batteries at a normal level and with that you can get back to normal you...more so if you have a 2year old child at home the time where these kids is at the peak of their being a kid....sometimes it would blow you high enough to spank a small child but i try to avoid punishing them.if you cant beat them i try to join them and out run them and after play time they are all tired ready to sleep and play the next day!

recently i do easily get mad with my son.he is beyond my control.for he don't like studying.but i hope he will be great in the future.when i get angry,i blow up so fast that i don't have time to stop and think or ask for God's wisdom.i know all of these things would help,but by the time i think of it i've already done the damanage.i always tell myself dont' be angry,because it's not good for my health.sometimes i can control.sometimes not.

I have a 'short temper' but work at controlling it. My best way is silly and old fashioned but counting to 10 before I respond works best for me. I do find my temper is shorter with those I love the most which makes it more difficult as those are the ones I'm around the most also.

Whenever someone I know shows lack of respect for someone, I'll get mad pretty easily and lecture them about it. Normally though, I can keep my temper quite calm. Anger never brings anything good about.

Dear friend, There are various methods for stress management if one could practice certain like the self control could easily be done. May it is only lack of practice these methods or techniques. I do had heard yoga and meditation could control one temper. But many thing many knows but to make it into practical life is bit more tough which one have to have dedication and willingness.

I can control and manage my temper.But as what you said sometimes we can't avoid it. Our emotions sometimes over ruled our mind to our self. We have the right to feel like this but in the right time and in the right place.

I don't think I have a good temper,I get irritated very easily.But I never talk anyone behind their back,I think it's not polite.I can control my temper most of the time,but not when I was mad at my boyfriend.I just lost it,maybe because he is intimate to me,and I know subconsciously he will get mad at me.He is very gentle,I have never seen him shouting at anyone.I think that'good.I am trying to learn from hin right now.

I think of good things or give reasonable things... if they are late, i don't wait too long.. 5 minutes is enough then i leave... I always use yoga(breathing technique) to control my temper and avoid to be irritate.. If not i just go away to avoid wrong words that i say that might hurt them...

I try my best to understand others shortcomings, that is why I feel bad to those who are short tempered and not understandable. I just don't get it why a person cannot forgive simple mistakes , this is just an observation from people at my work place. They are the boss and they are really being bossy. It is like the employee committed a grave crime and the worst part is that they would not listen to any explanation.

yes, me sometime has the same thought of yours ,very angery even cannot contol myselfs.after some minutes ,everything will keep quietly. infact,anything when we meet or even bad temper will come , we can close our eyes , deep breahting , keep 3 minutes quiet no speek no laugh , no cry , then open eyes again,you will find you are more better , no the bad mad with you so much , maybe you can cry !
