Under Development

How many times we deal with difficult people around us. As a friend, as a colleague or even a family member.
I know nothing is perfect and as far as I am alive there would be people who I don't like and get on my nerve.
The easiest case is that the difficult person you have to deal with is difficult for most of the people around you and the hardest case is that , the person is difficult to some and doesn't show steady pattern. For example the person is difficult today and act easy tomorrow. You know someone with unstable personality but clever enough to play his/her game.
It's not always possible to get rid of that person. For instance say you have a difficult colleague, you can't just go to your boss and ask  please fire her/him, right? The only solution is to learn how to block out that person in your head. Stop thinking about the attitude the person is giving you and be yourself. It's not easy believe me but should be possible. This is what I am working on it. I am developing a thick skin. It hurts but that's the only solution. Soon enough I'll be a rhinoceros. Wish me luck!!

But, if you actually had a rhinoceros you could "convince" that difficult person to be reasonable - VERY reasonable. :)

Hello Hiva,

As far as I could find out, there are no people with a thick skin. So you won't achieve this, I fear.

However, there are a great many people who have a thick skin towards others but you can bet they are like flower if you are not considerate enough or rude.

Just take this and everything else that is not positive as a challenge. Imagine you are surfing on a wave and you have to stay on top! As the saying goes "don't let the bastards grind you down".
