Clear yourself of pent-up anger and resentment—that is, practice forgiveness of others and of yourself. Do this as often as you fill up your car with gas. There is no one way to do this; you’ll have to find a way that works for you. One example: You say to yourself, He was a son of a bitch, but I am not going to waste one more second of my precious life being angry at him. Forgiveness does not mean that you condone the deed, just that you renounce the hold that anger has over you.
