Stress Tip..by
G. Gaynor McTigue..TUE.03/01/05 That's
right, lose an argument. When was the last time you looked someone squarely in
the face and said, "You know, you're right. I'm wrong. Thanks for straightening
me out." Hard to do, isn't it? We'd sooner cling to a worthless position
than admit we're in error. But a humbling concession now and then is a great relief.
Because it removes the onerous pressure of trying to defend a flawless façade.
An image that fools no one. And displays weakness rather than character. (Don't
we see it every day in our politicians?) Lose an argument. Show humility. You'll
gain a lot more respect and credibility. Why make yourself crazy? Based
on G. Gaynor McTigue's acclaimed book Why Make Yourself Crazy? featured
in major publications and on talk shows across America. Come back for a new stress tip each weekday: bookmark this site.
Previous Stress Tip Don't sweat it if you don't click with someone. Very often -- even though there's no animosity between you; indeed there's politeness and respect -- you just don't hit it off with another person. Your understanding of each other, your senses of humor, your style of communicating...are out of whack. Even awkward at times. These are usually people you're thrown together with by circumstance rather than choice: a coworker, a roommate, an in-law. Don't let it distress you. Many people are on different wavelengths. And even though the both of you would like to have a more intimate relationship, it may not be in the cards. So don't force it. Just relax and try to make the best of your interactions with each other. Eventually you may find some common ground, or share an experience, that will bring you closer. Why make yourself crazy?
