True Character

It's easy for someone to have a good attitude when things are going well. But what happens when adversity strikes? Do you lash out? Place blame? Get defensive?

A true character test is being consistent in more difficult situations. Remember, most things tend to "work out". The unnecessary stress you add by getting all "hostile" only adds fuel to the fire and exacerbates the existing situation.

Tip.....take your time before reacting. Take a walk, yell into your pillow, or simply get another opinion. Just whatever you do, don't react or should I say....overreact.
