Is Your Day a Rehearsed Script?

Yep, It's True...



We're surrounded by many clichés that sound as if they apply only to rehearsed scripts, but what about real life situations? Well, seriously, some of these clichés may appear to fall in the category of 'easier said than done,' but are they do-able!



Let's find out. Following are some hilariously funny things you can do next time you get upset and you just know you'll get in trouble if you lose your temper. Are you ready, here we go?



1. Breath! Remember to breathe so you can get the much needed oxygen to your brain and don't do something you'll regret. For some inexplicable reason you seem to forget how to breathe when you're in an emotional state of upheaval, in this example, angry. Your body will do things you don't even realize it is doing. Have you ever looked at someone who is about to throw an angry fit? I mean seconds before the mouth opens, really angry and not saying a word, there is no breath exchange in their lungs. Do they know it? Probably not, because their body is simply reacting to the emotional state of being angry.



2. Blink! Remember to blink, or at least make an attempt to blink. Not blinking is another interesting and inexplicable body reaction to anger. Notice how some people will give you that icy glare before the mouth opens to shout out those 'not very nice words'. Give it a try, blink as soon as the thought to blink crosses your mind.



3. Smile! Remember to smile, Ha-Ha, what a task! This specific facial distortion, called a smile, goes against those irritating and irrational feelings you may be experiencing while having your angry fit. But will give you the most results, rephrased, will give you the best results. Have you ever tried to smile when you're angry? Try it. It will cause you to laugh. It's a very difficult task but very doable. You emotions will change in a heartbeat. You'll even get the giggles, you silly person you!



Okay, here's the drill in a nutshell for the next time someone cuts in front of you, or if you can't find your car keys, or even if someone takes your parking spot...



1. Breathe

2. Blink

3. Smile



And have a great day!
