What should you do if you encounter bad people or bad situations?

Most people's first reaction is often to let emotions take over: anger, grievance, unwillingness, wanting to immediately argue about right and wrong.
But in reality, this is precisely the most useless and most costly way to handle things.
Truly mature people, when faced with problems, always prioritize judgment over venting.
First, solve the problem, rather than obsessing over who is right or wrong.
Because many times, the situation has already happened, and the more you indulge in emotions, the bigger the problem will become.
Second, determine whether the other person is worth communicating with.
Not everyone is reasonable; some are just mean and stupid.
The more you try to change them, the easier you are to get dragged into an emotional quagmire.
Third, do not make decisions at the peak of your emotions.
When people are angry, they are most likely to say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing.
Many regrets are caused by emotions making decisions for you.
Fourth, change “fight for a breath of air” to “protect your own state.”
Many conflicts, even if you win, cost you time, emotions, and energy.
Truly capable people won’t let bad people easily affect their rhythm.
Fifth, learn to review after the fact, rather than exploding on the spot.
After emotions settle, calmly assess the problem, responsibilities, and boundaries.
This is often when the handling is truly effective.
True maturity is not about having no emotions, but finally learning:
Emotions can exist, but behavior must be controlled by yourself.
