A Clean Slate
After a negative interaction, traces of emotions and impressions get left over. These shape our future expressions! That's why it's important to wipe the slate clean. This doesn't mean erasing things completely, no, it means transforming negative into positive.
Here's how in 3 steps:
1) Acknowledge your emotions and understand what triggered them.
2) If you could replay that scene again, how would you do things differently?
3) Create a positive impression about that negative interaction and move on.
