When is it easier to put out a fire when it is small or when it is raging out of control

The Warning LightImagine you have a warning light in your head. The light should go off when they are angry to remind them to stop and think before they react

Counting to tenIt is difficult to be angry and count at the same time. This will give you time to calm down before you react

Self StatementsTell yourself you are calm and in control and make it so. I dont have to let this get to me.I can handle this.I can stay calm.

ReframingGet a picture of the situation that is making you angry. Then you are going to put a different frame on it. Is this worth getting angry about?Am I sure this person is out to hurt or insult me?Is there another way to get what I want?Try to see it from the other persons point of viewDoes the other person even care/know that I am angry?
