100 to 0 in 10 Seconds

Have you ever noticed how your positive attitude can go from 100% to 0 in 10 seconds when you're angry? Unfortunately we can't get back to 100% nearly as quickly.   However, a few simple steps can speed the process:
  • Letting it go - Decide what can be done and take action, or at least begin the process.
  • Reframing - In the scheme of things, how important is this?
  • Laughing - It's hard to stay angry when we can find something to laugh about!
  • Moving on to the next positive activity - Changing our focus to something important and engaging that we need to do diffuses the the negativity and creates another positive focus.
