How to Become Emotionally Mature
= THREAD =
Some people have this magical touch.
They can stay calm even in the eye of the storm.
Nothing fazes them.
They can even make their enemies feel comfortable in their skin.
People around them trust them and depend on them for advice.
How are these people different?
Short answer - they are emotionally mature.
And here's how you can become like them as well:
1. Accept Responsibility
Stop being a victim.
Something went wrong because of an action you took or a decision you made.
Now you have the responsibility to pull things back on track.
You cannot change others.
But you can change your views, your actions, or the words you use.
“The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.”
- Albert Ellis
