@twitterfire Dumbass, what the fucking fuck is your problem? I am gay too, do you want me to die too??? OMG Motherfucker you're so stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been looking for this video that Davey made, he mentions how he keeps money he finds from the universe. I've seen almost all of them so I have no clue which one it is! LOL. If someone could please help me, it would be greatly appreciated :) Thank you
@23LoveK I think that might have been in the video where he gives a little tour of his condo. I'm pretty sure he briefly shows the bowl where he keeps the money or something. I think there was a little Buddha next to it...
It's impossible to never get pissed. It's just human nature.
If someone says or does something that annoys, irritate, irks you, or you're heart is starting to pump and start to feel hot and a lil sweaty, those are signs inside you that you getting pissed.
Also if you're Mentally disturbed or if you feel butthurt.
Two years ago my husband was lying by the side of the road with his leg completely broken in two. He had a paramedic by his side and 2 ambulances in the road. A young boy racer type drove past at speed through a puddle, showering him with dirty water. A serious infection set in and he almost lost his life. Sometimes you just have to accept that there are complete jerks out there.
Davey, what can I do when I´m facing a jerk that is actually behaving like a jerk, and that there´s no doubt about it? Maybe a guy hitting a girl on a street, for example, or someone insulting me just for the sake of it?
I have just recently restarted watching your videos Davey, and I really think you should have longer hair. Not too long mind you, but just a TEENSEY WEENSEY bit longer
What if there's no way that there's an alternate story ... like the person deliberately insults you or something? Some people are jerks & it's not too hard to know when someone's done something to you on purpose Dave.
GODDAMNIT WHO THE FUCK WOULD DISLIKE THIS VIDEO?!?! I'M SO FUCKING ANGRY AT THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS TO DISLIKED THIS SHIT VIDEO THEY SHOULD BURN IN HELL OMG I'M SO FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@DurwardMatt Think of the alternate story: maybe they were attempting to click "like" but were pushed by someone as they were about to do so and clicked "dislike".
What if there is no alternate story? What if the guy was very obviously being a jerk?
I'm just curious how you deny what you saw = the driver saw a puddle, an unsuspecting target and a very entertaining opportunity. But I'm sure his wife was right next to him, screaming for him to go faster and trying to remember what she'd learned in lamaze class. Goof ball!

Oh my gosh! This is exactly how I handle those situations... If I'm driving and someone speeds up behind me, I get out of the way. I assume its an emergency. You never know. I always create alternate stories. Great topic!
are you buddhist? or do you follow the buddhas teachings? cause i am (im gay too...just sayin) and it seems like you are too. you have the same compassion and the same attitude and the same perspective as most buddhists do....also i saw your vid when you said you painted all the pictures in ur house and there was a buddha meditating pic above your toilet x]
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Shut the fuck up fag, i clicked on this because there whas a title call how to never get pissed off again, But you just fucked up my whole day, Focking assfucker
@IvySweetVenom lol, Why you making me come back to this video, This guy just pisses me off, The fact that he is gay i don't care but putting his shit ass on youtube and not putting in his title only for gay guys pisses me off, The thing he just said in his video makes no sense at all, Look how many gay guys voted my comment down, Its hillarious
I've used this technique before I even watched this video. But I have to say, it has HELPED a lot. But only for the small stuff. For big things like--ex. someone dumping me after 2 years--It doesn't really help. I sometimes believe that anger is helpful if controlled correctly and not wasted in for too long of a time. I'm probably one of the only people who meditates constantly, follows Tao, and finds this to be true.
It's true, sometimes you have to be empathic and put yourself in the other person's shoes and see things how they see it, or else you'll never truly understand. Very insightful! Keep up with the awesome vids =)
if only i had watched this last week when the straight guy i had a crush on last year was throwing balls at me during gym just because im gay... :[ ruined my day... this would have helped! thanks davey ill try it out :D
I just needed someone to remind me to think twice before judge others. I had a stressful weekS, thanks for the video. Exactly what i needed, Davey.... thanks :)
Davey, I do this; make myself see every possibility. Usually, I fall more toward the reasonable explanations.
I commend you for not holding any contempt toward this said stranger. However, when attempting to see the good in people, you must use yourself to fulfill the reasoning. Meaning, would you, under any circumstances do as such to another individual?
Probably not. Thus this person is probably a jerk. They could've at least imparted a warning. Like honking.
When I encounter crazy drivers, I usually assume that he/she needs to take a shit because I know I drive like a maniac when I am in that situation. So instead of getting pissed off, I feel their dilemma.
everything happens for a reason, this it seems to me was that it prompted you to create this video to change the perspectives of MANY MANY people including me
@nanu1980 I dont know how ur applying the word 'love' here but i think that if ur feeling negative to any person, you are doing that to some degree. But Love has no degrees. Your either loving or not loving in the moment. And Love is shown in different ways, even if its a respecting a persons right to be who they be.
I's difficult to have anything but contempt for the inconsiderate or the careless, but, I'll try the Alternate Story technique after my next such encounter. Thanks for sharing!
i agree with u...i prefer to always give people the benefit of a doubt, and if it's a situation where i'm in contact with that person i prefer to hear him out first.....then i can make up my mind ....at least i try to do that all the time ....sometimes i'm not 100% successful :P ..
I agree David. In my day this was called "Taking the high road". I have taken the high road for the last 5 years and it's great because so few people use it. Most, if not all, of the angry people take the "low road" which is why it's so crowded and full of hate.
I agree with you Davey. I've been applying this technique for over 20 years. When a stranger does something that might normally make me want to get mad at them, not knowing their situation is the best way to help keep myself in check. Why always assume that people's only intention is to piss me off. I know I've done stupid things (on rare occasions) that I didn't mean to do, and couldn't apologize for it (would be weird to follow a driver to their destination just to apologize).
Many of my friends are against the mosque near Ground Zero. We should allow it in order to promote tolerance. I also propose that two gay nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque to promote tolerance in the mosque. We could call them "The Turban Cowboy" and "U Mecca Me Hot".
i love ur videos, but i cannot agree with you on this subject. anger, just as love, is ahuman emotion that should be expressed whenever felt. it is the diversity of feeling that make us all different. i wouldn't want everyone to be always loving. life is multidimensional. i am all about peace and love, but when one gets angry i think it should be externalised and not repressed. :)
This is called the fundamental attribution error... instead of attributing behavior to situational factors, we tend to attribute it to character traits. By taking situation into account, I think it makes us judge less, which in general makes us more positive and less angry [at least for me].
I love your videos. You are incredibly insightful! I wish I could take a journey through your mind and soak up your ideas. How are you so enlightened? Reading? Meditation? Do tell any good books you've read or things to that effect.
but. i really don't find this applicable much else. say someone very close to you gets cancer. is there an alternate story you can imagine for that? i would find it very reasonable to be pissed off at the universe at that point.
Getting (briefly) pissed-off and blowing off some steam also can have soul-healing effects. At least for me, and i think for many other people. Also, it can be done wayyyy faster than having to stop and create some dubious alternative story :)!
i was getting annoyed at friends this week because they wern't replying or being very talkative ,andi went to thenegative side of oh maybe they dont want to tlkto me or maybe ive done something wrong , but wheni asked them it turns out they had their own issues and it had nothing to do with me.. makes me feel stupid and I should have thought about the other possibilities instead of going straight to the negative angry side..
omg i started bawling near the end!!! I think it was the combination of the beautiful and relaxing music, and your incredibly positive outlook on life that just made raw emotion burst forth from within me. Thank you for so much help Davey, you really are an inspiration to me!
We all could be more compassionate & understanding, BUT be compassionate & understanding of this fact as well: sometimes getting pissed off is the justified & proper reaction to actions taken against you. Maybe not for something as frivolous as what you relayed, but for important matters such as some bigoted legislator who tries to take away your rights. Sometimes getting pissed off leads to a call for action. Obama would never have been elected had Bush & the GOP not pissed off so many people.
Oh my goodness, Davey! Your video's subject, the "Alternate Story Technique" I think you said, right? It actually stems from something in social psychology. When bad things happen to us, we blame the situation (including blaming someone for speeding by and splashing us), but when something bad happens to someone else, we blame them. It is interesting that you bring this up, we just recently studied it in my social psychology class. Go you for making it more understandable!!!
Awesome, It actually takes A LOT to get me pissed off, but it does happen once in a blue moon… This is a great way of simply changing your perspective! I LOVE IT! thanks Davey, XOXO -Stu <3
hey handsome... hope all's fantastic in your corner of the world! (as for me, sad summer's pretty much over!) anyway, just wanted to say HI! XOXO -Stu
I like that you're promoting a more empathetic approach, but anger, like every other emotion, needs an outlet for expression. I don't think it's a good idea to temper your anger with compassion every time something or someone makes you upset. In my opinion, anger should be channeled into activities that require you to challenge yourself physically and/or mentally without deliberately hurting others, such as doing an intense workout or writing a song or poem.
I don't do the alternate story technique... I just don't get that mad that fast, i don't let it bother me that's all. I just rely on karma, which has never let me down before haha.

You're giving too much credit to humans beings. Humans are self-serving, self-obsessed, self-centered assholes.

Getting (briefly) pissed-off and blowing off some steam also can have soul-healing effects. At least for me, and i think for many other people. Also, it can be done wayyyy faster than having to stop and create some dubious alternative story :)!

I dunno..... creating excuses for people who act like jerks doesn't keep them from acting like jerks.
You may not be upset, ( agreed, a good thing) but you're still soaked!

i was getting annoyed at friends this week because they wern't replying or being very talkative ,andi went to thenegative side of oh maybe they dont want to tlkto me or maybe ive done something wrong , but wheni asked them it turns out they had their own issues and it had nothing to do with me.. makes me feel stupid and I should have thought about the other possibilities instead of going straight to the negative angry side..

I love your way of love, the way you're so caring, loving and all the rest of it.
You've inspired me to be more loving and caring and not get annoyed/pissed off over the slightest little things.
Thankyou :3

We all could be more compassionate & understanding, BUT be compassionate & understanding of this fact as well: sometimes getting pissed off is the justified & proper reaction to actions taken against you. Maybe not for something as frivolous as what you relayed, but for important matters such as some bigoted legislator who tries to take away your rights. Sometimes getting pissed off leads to a call for action. Obama would never have been elected had Bush & the GOP not pissed off so many people.

its not healthy at all to supress your anger your anger is a part of you if you deny your anger you will snap like a twig sooner or later

Oh my goodness, Davey! Your video's subject, the "Alternate Story Technique" I think you said, right? It actually stems from something in social psychology. When bad things happen to us, we blame the situation (including blaming someone for speeding by and splashing us), but when something bad happens to someone else, we blame them. It is interesting that you bring this up, we just recently studied it in my social psychology class. Go you for making it more understandable!!!

I like that you're promoting a more empathetic approach, but anger, like every other emotion, needs an outlet for expression. I don't think it's a good idea to temper your anger with compassion every time something or someone makes you upset. In my opinion, anger should be channeled into activities that require you to challenge yourself physically and/or mentally without deliberately hurting others, such as doing an intense workout or writing a song or poem.

I don't do the alternate story technique... I just don't get that mad that fast, i don't let it bother me that's all. I just rely on karma, which has never let me down before haha.
