Irritations are manageable, when we think to do so.
Irritation is a natural process. Nobody is free from this grave weakness. Some people get irritated over the smallest issues, while others manage it to their own benefit. Don’t defend ourselves when someone points out this part of our indecent behaviour. It is time to realise the bad spots in our behaviour. Irritation does not serve any purpose. Rather, it disturbs the peace of our mind and distorts the consistency of our approaches. When somebody does not agree with our views, it should not be a source of our irritation. Let them disagree. Don’t carry this discomfort too far in your mind. Every now and then, there are clashes of priorities. It happens. Try to get on a middle path instead of burning our minds. It may take months or even a longer span of time to determine who was correct. Deciding right or wrong before doing anything normally spoils the entire game. Things that go against our expectations cause turmoil in our minds. Here, it is to accept that the problem lies in our too-high, too-low, or opposing expectations. We can’t judge everything accurately. We may be wrong in our analysis and probing of issues in the discussion. Losing the game on one occasion opens ten doors for proving our worth. Don’t allow anyone else to control the peace of our minds. Say there is a traffic jam, and we are irritated. The solution is to start travelling a little early or change the route. All papers are not ready before attending a workshop. Be careful next time. Irritation provides an opportunity to correct one’s own deficiencies. When things are beyond our control, accept the loss, if any. Irritations are instantaneous behaviours, but they cause huge damage mentally as well as physically. Irritations cause dents in our relationship slowly but certainly. Say "sorry" without loss of time. Errors and omissions are not strange happenings. Solutions lie in our higher degree of alertness and not in losing our temper.
