I thought long and hard about what habit/trait that I could try and improve for a week. I decided that I would not criticize others. I do that a lot when I am driving. I was picking up my son from school last week and there was this big truck on the side of the road with its turn signal on indicating that it was about to pull on to the road, so I stopped and waited. The guy went ahead a little, then saw me and stopped, so I started driving. Then he decided he would go before me, but then stopped again. So I waved for him to just GO already ....some idiot lady in the car behind me started honking like it was my fault. Finally, I just drove off and noticed that she was going the same way that I was. Instead of calling her a "moron" as I normally would do, I just drove really slow. I did 35 in a 70 zone. I looked at my girlfriend and said "I feel bad, she must REALLY be in a hurry" ... yet I continued to drive really slow. I looked back and smiled at the car behind me. I think being vocal about my frustrations keeps me from doing stupid things, so I will not abandon it.
Cheers,
Craig
