TEMPERANCE, this is one of the hardest thing to do. a lot of things might the root of provocation. as a person we must gist the circumstances before we react. but sometimes things come in abrupt. can you guys share how you hold your temper?

When I need to hold my temper I usually listen to music or draw, it helps me to keep calm and to relax and maybe think twice about what is making me feel that way. Music is what helps me a lot though.

It is not easy to make me lose my temper especially when I have known that angry is bad for health.Well that might be a good way to control our health.When we feel angry about something unimaginable,we just try to think this way we do not require to be angry and it will hurt our health.I sometimes will nearly lose my temper for someone's wrong.After a little while,I will think that things that has happened can't turn back and angry is no use.Then I will feel better.We should sometimes show our unhappiness if necessary,lest others take it as a weakness in us.

As for me, I listen to music to cool down my temper. Music always helps. If there's none available I just try to think of the circumstances that would happen if I give in to my temper.

i dont burst out in anger because i know that bad things happen when one is mad. I close my eyes, take a deep breath and think what to say.
