I have heard this complement from many friends and even from some strangers as well that I am a calm person. As per them I never lose my temper, which is actually not true. There are times when I too become angry and lose my tempers, though it happens very rarely.

We are living at a time when we had to face so many tensions. Be it related with our work place, work pressure mounting its toll on everyone, be it issues in the relationship, be it related with the health issues of either our own or some closed family members, and don’t know how many other issues, but we all are bound to face them.

We normally see that the other person always remain calms, there must be no issues in his or her life, but it is not true. Do you think I don’t have tensions in my life? I certainly do have, even more than some people of this universe. But then it is also true that we all want to stay calm and compose at those times.

Is not it’s your desire to stay calm and compose at the stressful times?

Don’t you too realize that staying calm and composed at the times of stress would have benefited you?

Frankly it is true; we all want to stay calm and composed at the time of emergency, but we can’t.

How to Be a Calm Person? 

Let me tell you the secret. Though it is not anything which is not known to anyone, but we all forget to follow these things which help us to stay calm at the necessary times.

It can be difficult to stay calm at times, but it is not impossible.

Although I have written two blog posts on exactly the same things which I am sure is going to help you. You can read my blog on how to keep yourself calm, I am sure it can give you some better idea about how to be a calm person, while you can also read the blog of Ayushi Nagpal on how to stay calm. I am quite sure that these two blogs will give a better perspective of understanding how you can make yourself a calm person.

Here are some tips which can help you to remain calm at the necessary times:

Divert Your Mind 

If something is taking test of your patience, let those things should take backseat for some moments. Let detach yourself from those issues for some time. I do remember one great line which I read somewhere, when something’s make you angry, don’t ever try to respond to them at the same moment.

I have realized this lately, there was a time when I was getting some emails which made me angry for any reason and I use to respond to it quickly. But now these days I use to ignore such mails, or conversations which make me angry, and then after sometime when I calm down a bit I use to respond to those.

Diverting your mind from issues for some time, unless you feel a little bit calmer, can make things possible.

Do What You Love to Do 

You need to find the thing which comes under your comfort factors. I won’t say to breathe deep, or drink water, this time, but it is you who need to decide which things can make you calm.

Play a game, either temple run on your mobile, or candy crush on Facebook, or count from one to ten, or do whatever you love to do and which can make you calm at situations. Although I would never suggest anyone to do smoking, drinking or taking drugs for all these. These are the things which won’t make you calm, but will further increase your impatience level.

As I suggest in my last post on the same types of topic that you can also learn some meditation and yoga as well to become calm.

Sometimes laughter therapy can also work wonders for you, though I always prefer to watch some comedy movie or comedy TV serial to laugh, instead of laughing of no reasons.

Keep Emotions Aside 

Emotions are something which can always stop you to take correct decisions. Especially when you are facing such a situation in which a person is taking tests of your grit, it is better to keep emotions aside.

Try to use your brain and reach to a logical solution of the situation. If you can think properly I am sure you can easily be able to come out of the situation.

Think About Glorious Past 

Just try to draw strength from your glorious past. It might be possible that today you are not living a life which you were having a few days or months or years back, but you can take inspiration from those previous days as well.

I never support anyone to live in the glorious past only, you should obviously be clear of your present, but then you can certainly take inspiration from the same.

It is something which always works for becoming calm down.

Contact Your Friends 

I do believe that loneliness is a bad disease and we all should not live a life with a thinking of being lonely. At least we should have some friends with whom we can share everything which we want to. No matter if the friends is connected through FB or Gmail or through phone only. Who says that physical presence of a friend is always required? You just need to share your issues with your friend and see how easily issues can be resolved.

Do remember one thing though, friendship is a very touchy thing, you cannot assume it as a One Way journey, when you need your friend you can remember them, but when your friends need you, you cannot simply ignore them.

Although at times of problems, or issues in your life, friends are always there to help you to stay calm.

Cry it Out 

The last but not the least tips to stay calm and composed are to cry it out. No matter of which gender you do belong to, but crying always helps you to become calm. It is normally said that instead of keeping things inside your heart, it is better to throw them out with tears.

It certainly helps to become calm.

So those were some of the tips which I suppose can have the ability to make you a calm person. What do you think about this blog post of mine? Please do share your opinion in the form of comments below. I would love to hear your opinion about this blog post of mine.
