There’s no point in winding yourself up and making yourself nervous. In the end, you will realize it anyway that it’s absolutely unnecessary. I see people getting angry easily if there is a line at the cashier or in the post office and they have to wait. I take things easy. I don’t get emotionally involved. I know that sooner or later the line will move and it’s going to be my turn. I use public transportation quite often, and most people start to get impatient when they can’t find a seat. I think it’s absolutely unnecessary. If you complain, you will only do harm to yourself. When I’m driving and get a red light, I wait patiently till it changes, although sometimes it seems like hours before it does. I am patient at work too. I don’t like to rush or get flustered.
Reliable. I am reliable. That’s how I was brought up. If I promise something, I’ll do it. You know I am a building contractor and it’s a must that you are reliable. If I wasn’t reliable, I wouldn’t have work. I know a person who is a building contractor too but he hardly has any jobs. He’s managed to earn a bad reputation for himself because he cheated many of his customers. He asked for money from them upfront but then he was late on the work and the quality was bad as well. Some of his customers even took him to court.
