…..wrong footed! You must have heard the expression ‘got out of bed on the wrong side’. For no clear reason you greet the new day feeling a little grumpy and it rubs off on to those you meet. Something has made you feel that way, probably something small but for some reason it has irritated you this day. You have started the day on the wrong foot! Had you arisen perhaps five minutes either side of that time you probably wouldn’t be so grumpy. It seems illogical but it happens.
Today I had occasion to drive a few miles and before I had gone a couple of hundred yards somebody did something to annoy me. They slowly pulled out across my path when all they had to do was wait for me to pass. There was nobody behind me. Now I thought to myself, ‘Yes, please ‘make my day’, make me feel irritated, wind me up and get me annoyed’. Well yes it did annoy me and I gave him a ‘toot’ on my horn just to let him know. I forgot the incident a moment later because I didn’t wish it to spoil the rest of my day.
Sometimes it is too easy to let things bother you and allow them to spoil your day. Sometimes it takes much self-control to stay unruffled but it is better to do that than to stay upset.
Have a nice day…………………..
