Are their times when people get under your skin? Do they push all of your emotional and physical buttons? I’m sure that we can all relate to this.
Well, I have a remedy for this unpleasant aspect in our lives. Are you ready? Here it is…KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS! Don’t feed into an annoying person’s desire to get you angry and throw you off kilter. (more…)

You can do with this with a strong and firm voice that is neither aggressive nor confrontational. Don’t raise your voice and maintain eye contact. It’s very important to make sure that your communication is clear. It should leave no doubt in the listener as to what you are saying and why you are saying it. (more…)
