In life, we will inevitably encounter some things that make us angry. Sometimes, these things can be small, but they can get our emotions out of control in an instant. However, getting angry doesn't solve the problem and can make our mood worse. So, how can you stop getting angry?
Below, I will tell you the answer through a short story.
Once upon a time, there was a young man who was very easily angry. No matter what happens, he will always lose his temper at the first time, and even speak ill of the people around him. This went on for a long time, until one day, he met a wise man. The wise man tells the young man that he can teach him a way to stop getting angry. The young man was very happy and hurriedly consulted the wise man. The wise man asked the young man to fetch some nails and told him to stick one to the tree whenever he wanted to get angry.
The young man did so, and on the first day he drove thirty nails; The next day he drove twenty nails of iron; On the third day, he nailed ten iron nails ......As time went on, young people nailed fewer and fewer nails to the trees. Finally, one day, he didn't nail it again.
The young man was so happy that he ran to tell the wise man the good news. The wise man smiled and nodded, and then asked the young man to remove all the nails from the tree. The young man did as the wise man said, and when he had removed all the nails, he was astonished to findMany small holes were left in the tree. The wise man told the young man: "These holes are like the damage you do to others when you are angry, and even if you apologize afterwards, you can't fully make up for it." So, when you feel like getting angry, think about these little holes and think about what kind of harm your actions will cause to others. The young man listened to the words of the wise man and was inspired. Since then, he has learned to control his emotions and no longer get angry easily.
This story teaches us that getting angry doesn't solve the problem, but rather makes us lose our minds and make some bad decisions. When we want to get angry, we can calm down and think about the consequences of our actions. At the same time, we can also learn some ways to control our emotions, such as taking deep breaths, counting, shifting attention, etc. In short, it is not an easy thing to stop getting angry and it requires us to constantly work hard and practice. However, as long as we persevere, we will be able to become the master of our emotions and make our lives better.
