The 12 Count Rule: Curbing Anger Practically by Ladipamela(f): 2:22pm On May 10, 2020 |
Twelve count rule: curbing anger practically The twelve count rule states that "to curtail anger, always count 1-12 in your subconscious mind before speaking or taking an action". Getting angry seems inevitable in our everyday's life and interaction with others. It's either we are upset or someone else is annoyed because of our actions or decisions. We speak harsh words when hurt which are often regretted when calm. It is common knowledge in every community that spoken words are irreversible that is why it is best that we think of the pros and cons of our words before speaking. It is said that " we are all reflections of our thoughts " that is to say our words, actions, characters and attitudes are all directed by our dominant thoughts. We should try as much as possible to think positively of ourselves and others and it will go a long way to curtail anger. You can't give what you don't have; if you are upset with yourself then how can you be happy with the people around you? How can you also treat people nicely? In essence our personal happiness will go a long way to improve our life. Our words and actions are dependent on our thoughts. They can be controlled if we monitor our thoughts. Feed the subconscious mind with positive and happy thoughts at all times because our thoughts determine our words. Words are powerful; they can build or mar relationships, heal or wound, cheer or sadden, encourage or discourage, comfort or grieve. Everytime we speak to others, our words produce effects which can be positive or negative. No word is void. It's either the person we are speaking to do not put our words into consideration to feel the impact. We should always remember that words are seeds; they grow to reproduce after their kind. The 12 count rule can also help in curtailing anger, excitement and in cases when we need to make decisions abruptly. It dissolves anger and reduces the rate at which we act on impulse. It can improve our choice of words and will go a long way to reduce the possibility of over reacting in situations. It's best if we'll take a step and put it into practice for our betterment. |
