Do you have a pet peeve or peeves? What do you do when it takes place? Do you grumble and pout, get angry at the situation or simply walk away?
My pet peeve?
From as long as I know being on time meant reaching 5-10 minutes before time given and if you reach at the time given you were late. Yea my dad different so but then he instilled something in me that would last a lifetime.
Lateness gets on my nerve and to me you have to be on time to show respect to people. However it has been something I have been faced with on numerous occasions and don't know how to get over it but I've been getting there with some simple steps.
I read a blog recently where the guy's pet peeve was the same as mine. His wife however, took hours to get ready. Over time he got over it with the thinking that well I love my wife and the people can wait. To me that was the hardest thing to accept, why should you be late for a meeting, an appointment or even church!
With deep thought and discussions I came up with a conclusion that would help me with my pet peeve or any for that matter.
1. Just say one simple but powerful word: Jesus!
2. When you're faced with the pet peeve think of it as a mirror. Am I late at times and no one makes a fuss. What do I do that may be someones pet peeve?
3. Breath and slowly count to 10 and back to one if you have too.
4. Smile. A big broad one ( this helps me)
So you see the next time you are faced with your pet peeve try the simple but effective steps and who knows it would become like nothing to you after that
Peace, love and blessings
