Do you ever get mad at someone or something?<\/p>\n

Or impatient?<\/p>\n

Or annoyed?<\/p>\n

Of course you do.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What about others being mad at you?<\/p>\n

Or annoyed.<\/p>\n

Or … well, you get the idea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, why say this.<\/p>\n

Well, if you think about it, the Mad you ‘get’ actually starts Inside<\/strong> you. Then it gets expressed.<\/p>\n

The annoyed starts inside also.<\/p>\n

In fact every single emotion that you have, whether you express it or not, starts Inside<\/strong> you.<\/p>\n

You are full of ‘mad’ or ‘hate’ or ‘impatience’ etc.<\/p>\n

Whether you express it outwards or not!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How do you feel when someone is mad at you and directs their mad\/emotion at you.<\/p>\n

Well, just imagine how you feel inside<\/strong> yourself when you<\/strong> create that same mad.<\/p>\n

Towards others, supposedly.<\/p>\n

In actuality the first casualty of your ‘mad’ is yourself<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

So are you the first to get it with any and ALL emotions you create inside of you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is also true for being happy. You get it first. And at full force.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So the next time you start getting mad at someone or something realize this is not true.<\/p>\n

You are getting mad inside<\/strong> yourself first. And some of that may actually be shown to others or not.<\/p>\n

Most people let it sit inside themselves for quite a long time before they let it out.<\/p>\n

And are ‘enjoying’ (!) the results, full force.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Decide you do not deserve all that hate or madness inside yourself.<\/p>\n

And simply change the subject.<\/p>\n

Sorry, no tricks work as well.<\/p>\n

Just firmly decide to change your attention to some other PRE-Decided subject. (A recent nice evening out, a good meal you just had with friends etc.)<\/p>\n

Just think of that whenever you next get triggered.<\/p>\n

It really is<\/em><\/strong> that simple.<\/p>\n
