Three annoyances or irritants

There are always going to be those people in life that you find generally annoying. It is difficult to communicate and sometimes live with those people if you must and what are you going to do to solve the situation? The first step, as with any problem is admittance. Yes, I am talking about YOU identifying the problem and seeing why these people irritate you so greatly. It's the first step of many to overcoming your urge to smack people upside the head when you feel them really get under your skin. Now, how do you do this?

Well, it is simple. You must identify what annoys you the most in people and what your triggers are. To clarify, I have triggers that cause people to instantly annoy the heck out of me. But, mine are just for example and may or may not be similar to those around me. And on the flip side of things, I could potentially be the problem for someone else, but that is another topic for another time.

So, what are some examples of things that annoy me when I am interacting with people? Well first, I get irritated when someone talks only about themselves and then they talk over you. That is just plain rude and unprofessional on many levels. Everyone has an opinion; granted there are some opinions that should not be said, but they all exist. When a person solely speaks of themselves and then they continue to "outshine" you, it displays a sense of narcissism that no one would find attractive, fun, interesting, or all the great things that will progress you in life.

Second, ignorant or "blind" hate. It does irritate me to see someone post something online, or speak in real life about another person's lifestyle, goals, ethics, morals, etc. when they have no idea how that person has come to where they are now, what they have gone through, and who they are. I do feel like it has become common in today's society to simply post what you feel or say what you feel. Is that right? There is truth in all things, and that can help clarify a person's stance on a particular subject, but no it is not right to place your hate in front of even a single person because you feel like you are vindicating a reason.

And lastly, I am annoyed when people are fake. We all have an identity, we all have a personality, face, ideas, and thoughts as a person. That does not mean you should mimic another to the point where you are their carbon copy. Individuality is what makes society beautiful; it makes you, you. If you're afraid of yourself perhaps there is good in that, because you maybe daring, insightful, revolutionary. There is much gained from a new mind and a new way of life that people have not seen yet. And yet, people forget who they are.

Now, the best thing for anyone to do to solve their dilemma is to identify their reasons and why they bother them so. The next step would be to either stop associating with that person if you can, or simple alert them. It's all situational and up to you.
