how do i beat impetuousness

Dova80 · 03-28-2009, 01:01 AM

ok I tend to be far to impetuous so how do I get past it? how do I train myself to think if I am being that way or not?

I certainly do apologize

impetious

1 : marked by impulsive vehemence or passion <an impetuous temperament> 2 : marked by force and violence of movement or action <an impetuous wind>

Eventually you'll get old enough that when you do things like that,

1. People get hurt, physically or verbally

2. You get hurt

Usually cures you of it when your body has had enough or no one will want to associate with you.

Exhibit A: MV Augusta in garage! J/K

Seriously,I'm an impulse buyer (no,really?) and believe it or not,I've cut WAY down on that by forcing myself to wait at least one day before I buy anything over $50. No matter what. I don't know your specific problem but the basic key to fixing this find a way to force yourself to slow down your decision making process. Either by counting,or waiting a predetermined amount of time before making a decision.
