Every day you get many chances to become angry. For instance, a driver cuts in front of your car on the way to work. Someone else criticizes you. Another person doesn't return your call. All these are anger invitations. You could accept every one, in which case you'll be angry all the time. Instead, you have to be careful. The key is to ignore the less important invitations. You have to separate what is merely annoying from what is really serious.
