You Can be Great If You Really Want To

How to deal with an anger in the relationship with your ex spouse for a making up relationship?

Options to deal with anger:

- Write it out: Work through your anger by keeping a journal or
by writing letters BUT don’t mail them. It’s a way of putting down
what you think and feel and standing back and looking at what you
have written.

- Shout it out: Wind up the windows in your car or put your head
in a pillow, and scream. It helps to get rid of the negative energy in your body.

- Talk it out: Instead of directing your anger at your ex, talk to
a friend or seek help with a professional who specialises in anger
management.

Take responsibility for your part of the relationship break-up: It’s rare that only one partner is solely at fault. Recognising what makes you angry can help to find the triggers and old patterns so that you can take steps to stop repeating them. Think about the important issues: Talking about every little irritation provokes resentment: let go of the small stuff.

What to do about anger?

(1) Keep it in – or let it out?

Some experts say you should ‘express’  your anger rather than bottle it up. They point out that suppressing anger can lead to heart disease. Other experts say that expressing anger makes things worse because it exacerbates the difficult situation and can have unpleasant consequences for your relationships, your career, and even your personal freedom. The choice appears to be get it off your chest and you won’t get ill – but you may end up lonely or in prison. Or suppress your anger and you will be more popular – but you may get ill! Fortunately there is a third option – not to get angry in the first place.

(2) Dissolving anger

The best way of dealing with anger habit is to stop it occurring in the first place. Get to know which triggers that evoke your angry feelings and systematically defusing each of these. As you do this recognise how these triggers have controlled you, because they do – you encounter the trigger and off you go – on automatic pilot, out of control, ruled by your emotions. Start making an on-going list of all the triggers that spark you off. As you do these consider the cost of being in ‘their’ control? For example, your self esteem suffers – you afterwards feel bad with yourself because of how you’ve let yourself down and lost control. You feel bad about how others view you. Your family, partner, friends tend to treat you with caution, because they cannot relax in your company but have to remain on guard, waiting for the next explosion. Then there’s all the apologising and making up – ‘I’m sorry. I’ll never do or say that again, I promise!’ And no-one believes you. And there’s the cost to your peace of mind of endlessly going over events, re-running them and re-feeling the feelings over and over again! And each day watching for all the opportunities to feel annoyed.

(3) A trigger a week

Take a trigger each week and defuse that. Decide that from now on you want to be happy more of the time even if you have to let people ‘get away with things’. Write down the cost to your health, happiness, relationships, etc. of remaining a victim to this trigger. Just doing this won’t stop you becoming angry. You need to do a bit more. Immediately after becoming angry calm yourself with some breathing exercises and then have a rational chat with yourself – ‘OK, I did it again. I let myself down. I fell for it once again. But I’m learning to take things more easily because I know the cost of letting the triggers control me and I’ve had enough of being a victim to them!’ Developing your awareness in this way and on a regular basis will gradually defuse your tendency to fly off the handle. It will also defuse the tendency to justify your anger. In NLP we call these triggers anchors – check out the article on anchor-hunting too.

Indeed, life is short. Don’t let another day go by without taking a chance on happiness. You will never know until you try, so remember to make a move today. It can change or affect the rest of your life, therefore, at the very least, you can try to come out something for your ex love partner during your weekend plans. With a little practice, perseverance and patience, I believe that your relationship could be enhanced with the tips that I have shared earlier. If you have faced any problems with your loved ones, do not hesitate to visit this piece of article again.

I really have a strong belief that if you can understand what I have explained and applied what you have learnt from this piece of article, your problems can be eventually solved and your making up relationship can become more stable and stronger. I wish all the best for your making up relationship with your partner. Do always remember to spread word of mouth to your fellow friends for supporting the decision of having making up than breaking up.

Goal setting for kids is all about making sure your kids have fun. When kids have fun they actively seek out the experience again and again. We have all heard it a thousand times before – “just one more time, please mommy/daddy!!” This is the catch phase of kids who are having fun.

When children are bored they tune off, fidget about and drift off into their own little fantasy world that is filled with adventure and fun. Follow the five steps mentioned below and your kids will be too wrapped up in achieving their real adventures to go into the world of fantasy.

1) Let them learn from their mistakes without criticism. Criticism deflates fun, while support understanding and encouragement help to support a fun learning environment. It is from our mistakes that our greatest learning comes from. By viewing our mistakes as something to learn from instead of something that requires punishment is one the biggest advantages we can give our kids in life.

It teaches them that mistakes are a very normal part of learning and achieving our goals. This in turn will help them to actively pursue their goals as they grow up without fearing mistakes. Instead they will have the confidence to overcome many of the obstacles that life will throw at them.

2) Always focus on the positive. When our kids make a mistake focus on what the mistake has taught them. Use it as a positive. When they become disheartened point out what they have done that is good. And remember acknowledging that something is hard is also focusing on the positive. It lets your kids know that it’s normal for almost everything to be hard and awkward at first.

3) Join in on their excitement and enthusiasm for the project. This is a sure fire way to heighten the experience for our kids and double the fun. If you are genuinely excited and happy to be joining them (but not taking over) in their quest they will feel empowered. And as a side effect you will feel a greater connection to your kids.

4) Remember the journey is just as important as the end result. Although it’s important to know the end result when goal setting for children it’s not the only important component. See the journey as a series of mini goals that are needed to achieve the end result.

Reward you children for achieving each mini goal with plenty of praise and encouragement for what they have achieved so far. After all goal setting for our children should be just as much about creating happy lasting memories for our kids and ourselves as it is about reaching the finish line.

5) Tackle your mentoring role as an adventure not as a chore. Take the attitude of the explorer and adventurer and you will begin to find ways to make the whole experience of goal setting fun and exciting for your kids. This attitude will also help you to see the whole experience from your kids’ point of view. You will be amazed at how big of a difference a small change in perception can make to your whole outlook. And your kids will thank you for it with plenty of excitement and determination to get the job done.

The mistakes committed by leaders can be very costly for companies of any size. To eliminate the possibilities of any such mistakes and to lessen their graveness, there are many Leadership Development Training programs that are conducted in Denver.

Following are some of the very common mistakes that the leaders every where make:

1. Power Abuse

The downfall of some of the biggest organizations in the world have been brought about by the leaders who took undue advantage of their power to fulfill their own selfish ends. This phenomenon has been observed more among the newer lots who suddenly rise up the ranks and are swayed by the whole new world of negative possibilities.

Such leaders normally know their business very well and are often able to go scot-free also. However, the actions of such a scheming leader don’t go unnoticed by his/her subordinates in the immediate environment. It’s a different matter altogether that many subordinates prefer not raising their voice for the fear of retribution.

A leader is supposed to lead by example and therefore when the leaders only turn corrupt, the employees are no longer able to look up to any one in the organization. With the passage of time, everybody starts distancing themselves from such leaders.

2. Lack of expertise and knowledge

Leaders that normally move up the ranks based on favoritism and not meritocracy are often lacking in necessary skills to do their jobs perfectly. It may also be the case that the leader has stopped looking at his present profile as a means to reach even higher and considers it more of an end to enjoy life to the fullest. He may also be suffering from communication problems and may not be able to drive his team to do well.

In order to do justice to his job, it is very important for a leader to continue learning and improving in his art. If he closes the doors of his mind to the constant learning process, it is the organization that will eventually suffer from its consequences.

3. Fear of Delegation

Leaders very easily fall into the trap of thinking that because they are in a certain position they are the best people to do certain kind of jobs. This notion keeps them from delegating work to other employees who may be able to do better justice to the same jobs. Leaders indulge in such practices also to take maximum credit for the work done.

Such behavior clearly shows the lack of confidence the leader has in his teams’ capabilities. The leaders must understand that the people are appointed to fulfill certain roles in the organization because they are normally thought of to be the best in doing justice to those roles.

Leaders who indulge in such derogatory activities also loose respect in the eyes of their team. It is a normal phenomenon that if people are not given their due respect, they will not give it back either.

4. Indulging in Blame Games

Many leaders who readily take credit for the hard work done by their team members don’t take a moment in shrugging off all responsibility in the event that something unfortunate happens with a certain task.

In the earlier times, there never used to be forums that could address such issues to do with corrupt leaders. However, nowadays, with the communication becoming much easier, many multi national companies are opting for 360 degree feedbacks for the leaders at all levels of the organization. Some reputed organizations also have an Ombudsman to look into the employee grievances.

Leadership development training programs that are held in Denver take into consideration all the above-mentioned points and make sure that leaders both new and seasoned are taught the importance of their roles in an elaborate manner.
