When you are forced to live with a person, or a place or situation, which attitude helps you most?

Answer 1

P*ss on 'em. They'll do their thing and I'll do mine.

Answer 2

It is not possible to ignore the person, place and situation. Many may just bear with it, but to bear with it is could also leads to grudging and anger towards the situation. You may say you'll bear with it, but you might just end up complaining and complaining.

Accepting, rather than bearing the situation is a better way. Accepting isn't out of resignation, but to understand the situation or person you're dealing with now and use a proactive attitude to overcome it.

When you said forced, it shows how unwilling you are to this problem. Take a breath, and tell yourself that this situation isn't as bad as you think it is, and who knows, you learn something out of it.

Answer 3

The most important thing to remember is to constantly remind yourself that "This is only temporary, I will get threw this soon!, it wont last forever".
It may seem difficult to do this but if you practice this with everyday things you HAVE to do it will become like second nature and just something you do.
Plus if you truely belive it then you should have a better attitude as KNOWING there is a light at the end of the tunnel and almost everything you experience in life is a Temp situation so this takes alot of the strife, pressure and worrys you have do to your mundain, stressfilled, lacking of excitment life off of you and makes you appreciate the little nicetys more and kick aside the little pains in the butts with the assurance that they are not too painfull in the butt but more in the side...haha! thought I'd throw that in, but really this works I KNOW as I did this while on a state enforced Hiatus for several years and NOW I appreciate EVERY SINGLE aspect of my life good and bad, its ME now, I'm HAPPIER now and less aggrivated by people than ever before.
So you might want to practice and see what happens....good luck!

Answer 5

Im in france right now and the exchange guy Im with is quite a spoiled douche some times. The best thing you can ever do is turn the other cheek and roll your eyes.

Answer 6

Give and take attitude, I think.
Try to imagine someone you greatly admire in a similar situation, how would he/she have reacted (In a positive way)?
And try to take it from there.

Answer 7

I live my life and don't go out of my way to talk with the person. If they talk to me I courteous but I dont seek them out. Some days I don't even see them. That works the best. m

Answer 8

A person should be optimistic and should think that God is testing their faith and have faith in God. Its your attitude that matters the most.Its your attitude and not your aptitude that determine your altitude.

Answer 9

Take it from me, it's quite difficult.Well, just do your business and as much as possible, avoid crossing each other. Sometimes, being indifferent pays off. Just be yourself and always show courtesy (unless they do something you really hate).

Answer 10

look for the positive in the situation, and keep your sense of humor in when things go sour.

Answer 11

Just try to "get along". Somethings you just ignore others nip it in the bud and don't let it fester.
