You can’t avoid frustration but you can overcome them. What makes the smart is they ability to deal with frustration and overcome them. Frustration is overcome able and you can overcome it but you require knowledge to overcome frustration. You must know what to do in the face of frustration otherwise you become a victim but I know that won’t be you.
Below are some steps to take to deal with frustration:
Learn and note what triggers your frustration and avoid them or prepare for them where it is impossible to avoid.
Be careful about your expectation of others.
Don’t have a high expectation of others, know that your behavior is not a yardstick for others to live by; it is not in your place to set standard. So do not live other people’s life for them.
There is a saying that problem shared is half solved, so develop the habit of sharing your frustration with others by discussing it.
Find people that are supportive; who will be patient enough to listen and hear you out without being judgmental or start offering solution when you are not done boring your mind. When allowed to speak out your frustration, it is like opening a corked bottle, pressure is diffused.
Keep track of your accomplishments. Frustration is often accompanied by a feeling of unfulfilled dream, and frustrated people fail to have a realistic view of their accomplishment. They are quick to see what they have not done well and same time blinded to what they have done well; help yourself out, keep log of what has worked fine. Seek options.
For whatever task you are engaged in and in which you are not making progress, there are other tasks you can make progress in; so seek other options and do something difference. Don’t stick to one thing you are doing that is getting you frustrated.
Learn to hold your breath when you are very upset.
Save yourself the blame. Accept the reality and stop saying I wish this do not happen. It has happened it has happen, you can’t undo it.
