"One thing that has helped me personally in the past was to stop interfering with the people around me and getting frustrated when I couldnâ€™t change them. Instead of intrusion and passivity, may I suggest submission? Some people make the mistake of confusing â€œsubmissionâ€ with â€œweaknessâ€, whereas it is anything but. Submission is a form of peaceful acceptance of the terms of the universe, including the things we are currently unable to change or comprehend."
