Don’t engage
Some people just can not help themselves, when they see toxic people or are in a relationship, project, or workplace that is not progressing in the direction they like, they have to speak up. While getting involved and speaking your mind is always a good thing, you do not need to always engage and force a situation that isn’t going anywhere.
People that try to control everything usually stress themselves out because, at the end of the day, you just can not have your hand on absolutely everything. It’s impossible to control everything around you, from work to people’s behavior, so sometimes, just remove yourself and let it go. You can force everything in a certain direction.
