Think rationally, not emotionally

I am kind of a high temper person. I realized again that this personality is not good as I experienced one thing last time. I knew that I couldn’t control myself when I got angry. Last week, I was upset because my friend and I misunderstood each other’s feeling. At first time, I was trying to control my temper, but I was unable to suppress my anger. Finally, I fought with my friend on the phone.

When I got mad, I said whatever I wanted to say even if word was aggressive and it could hurt somebody’s heart. I was usually saying my opinion based on emotion rather than rational thought. I even could not remember what I said after fighting because I just spitted out words without thinking. That’s why my words were unorganized and not even logical. So my friends sometimes asked me ‘So, what’s your point?’ I usually think with my heart before my head. It is sometimes good for me if I want to speak the truth of my heart. However, I realize that it can ruin my relationship with my friends if I keep this temper.
