When you’re bothered—that is, annoyed, irritated, or upset—you lose your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and take action. You’re in a confused state, and it usually comes on by surprise. And though people have the tendency to attribute this feeling to some external cause, it’s always something that takes place on the inside.
While the world around you is becoming more and more “bothered,” it’s time to turn that “bother” to your advantage by dealing with it in a way that always leads to successful learning, decision making, action, and achievements.
