How to not get so angry at other people?

All sorts of flashing lights, escorts front and rear, yet every run there is at least one that pulls some calculated aggressive move - including brake checking.

I’ve stopped using the air horns - that guarantees a negative response. I only use it when I see I’m getting squeezed in and can’t move over for mergers. Short bursts, not a long pull.

Tailgaters are easy, just slow down without braking.

High beams at night - same, slow down, or exit and re-enter.

Basically, as well spoken here, you have choices. One choice is “Off gas, and if needed, On brake, or exit situation “.

Remember, the longer you argue with a fool, the less others can discern the difference.

“Be the professional “

 

Becareful, people don't fight with their fist anymore, but weapons.

 

It's just that....it's just exactly that.

 

The Quiet Professional

What Does It Mean to be a Quiet Professional?

 

anything that pisses you off is feminine. the feminine is vacant, it notices you have something and it doesn't have any of its own, its various means of enticement is its undeveloped way of querying for what you have, like a baby makes noises. it feeds on your output, it doesn't have any of its own to offer. notice how it gets excited by your reaction, it hits a nerve, it tries to make it worse, it can't help itself. that's its primary energy source, your attention. if you deny it, watch it have a fit. be sweet to it under duress, feed it crumbs of stable understanding to break its spirit, give it what it wants but by your terms rationed, you lead it. notice it. watch it relax and submit. now you own it.

 

Son, you need to get off of drugs.
