Question: I find at work, I get so easily upset with people. What can I do about this stress?

Umi: When you can totally accept people with whatever they are doing, however they are. Accepting that that it is their nature, that it is what they are doing in this moment. Then there is no stress in you.  But as long as you want something from someone or you want a particular behavior from someone, then there will be stress in you. Remember it is not them that is creating the stress in you, it is your wanting them to behave in a certain way. It is simply your wanting, that creates stress in you. But when you accept them, even though they are still doing the same things, going on in the same way, in that moment of your accepting them, in that moment, you are free of stress. Simply by accepting them.
