    Umm...
    First, i determine whether we have a common goal or not. This especially holds true in projects or workplaces. If we do have a common goal, their "arrogant" behavior is irrelevant to me. I will shift the focus back to the problem solving part, and positioned myself as a "good student" to balance their "know-all" attitude. This method works well for me, and i'll get to maintain a good working relationship with them as a result. Making people feel satisfied with themselves, as long as it doesn't hurt us, is not a loss.

    If we don't have any long-term relation, or if i fail to see a common goal, then simply say that they have a point and thank them for their input. Something like "i see. i do agree with some of your point. Thank you very much for your input" usually will manage to quell them. If it still not working, i simply pull myself away from that situation and ta-ta:blobReach:


    :hmm: have you work/study/dabble in the mental healthcare sector? this response reminds me of something :cookie:

    Gaining a person's trust is essential for them to be able to share their own flaws and insecurities. Showing your own vulnerability is a sign that they can do the same

    Thank you...:blobmelt:
    Ah~ there's nothing wrong with being different from everyone. Being different from everyone is a good things. I think... Each individual has their special character. :blobpopcorn:
    Because there's no one in the world who are the same. You're an interesting person ah~
    My question :
    When you're angry and sad, after sleep it off... Around two weeks later, are you still vividly remember it??:blobpopcorn:

    Restore my moods and motivation....
    Eating sugar? I don't really know. Low moods kinda just last. I guess listening to Four seasons works for me and Mozart as well.
    As for motivation (n) incentives I guess. Like if I get a chocolate if I'm able to complete sth or force myself to do the work I'm suppose to do.
    Smashing plates sounds nice but my mom's gonna kill me if I do that:ROFLMAO:.

    Yep music works most of the time for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .
    Just floating on the surface of the water is absolutely relaxing. I love the feeling. I can swim but I'm not very good at it.
    What helps you relax? :blob_tilt:

    *nod nod* yess.... :blobmelt:
    For me, i loves to lay down outdoors on the grass or roof top and just gaze at the sky above to clear my mind. Sometimes just float on the pool. When angry, i just find something cheap and useless to break it to pieces. After that, im able to laugh again...:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    Thank you :coffee:

    I have a bad habit of assassinating people in my mind. Just for scenario's sake, okay?

    Thank you.... :blobmelt:
    Yess... By talk to the right people and talk openly to them can keep our mind stay in track. And exercise can maintain our calm mind...:blobpopcorn:
    My question :
    When you feel anger at someone, after the walk away, the work out, and talk it out... If you cant solve it, are you able to leave it so that the anger isn't wasting your time?
    When your behaviour start to change and its bothering you, what are you doing to restore your calm mind and solve the stress?
