I ACCEPT that other people will do things that make no sense to me, or are really irritating to me. I've learned to put things on myself so that I can find a solution, because if I blame someone else I'm basically asking *them* to change, which won't happen.

I haven't sat at my desk at work for almost two weeks because of the loud coworkers near me. I just grab my laptop and bounce to somewhere quieter, and if anyone asks it's because *I* need to get my work done, and not because anyone else.
