Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - Loosen Up

[Guest guest]

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - " Loosen Up! "

How often do you find yourself feeling irritated by things that other people

do? If it is more often than you'd like, read on.

People who are easily irritated usually blame others for it. But to find the

reason - and notice I'm not talking about blame - they need to look inside

themselves, instead of those around them. Of course, irritability can have

many causes, but one of the most common is having too many restrictive

zones. In other words, too many rigid ideas and rules about right and wrong

behavior.

These folks believe there is a right way to squeeze the toothpaste tube, a

right way to load the dishwasher, a right way to do just about everything,

and they have all the so-called " facts " to back them up. Now, the problem is

not so much that they feel compelled to follow these restrictive and

unnecessary rules themselves, but they have the same compulsion about other

people too!

Sometimes others go along with them, just to keep the peace, but often they

will deliberately or unconsciously break these needless rules, just to drive

the compulsive folks crazy. It's important to become aware of the

self-imposed rules we live by and get rid of those that keep us rigidly

confined for no important reason. It is also important that we don't impose

our personal standards on others.

Why spend your days stressed out and irritated, wondering why your

relationships don't work? Relax! Loosen up a little! I guarantee everyone

will feel better for it.
