Greetings, everyone!
Hot temper is a destructive character trait that can ruin or destroy someone's reputation if care is not taken, and it can also cause someone to miss opportunities.

I want to share how a friend of mine missed a job opportunity because of anger issues. Any little thing would upset him, and it always resulted in him losing opportunities. One day, one of his friends walked up to him and talked to him about this attitude. The advice changed him, and he decided to work on his temperament and become a better person. After realizing he had lost the opportunity, he apologized to the people he had offended and moved on, but that did not restore the opportunity. He learned from it and turned over a new leaf. Since then, he has not become angry easily and has learned how to handle situations without quarrelling or shouting at people.
Our character is very important in relationships. Character sustains relationships and businesses.
I would like to share another story about my neighbor, who was in a relationship with a lady who was leading toward marriage.
However, because of his character and behavior, such as not keeping in touch, not allowing the lady to express herself freely, always giving excuses whenever she wanted to speak with him, giving her a difficult time, and prioritizing his business over the relationship, the relationship eventually ended.
The lady moved on and later found a good man who loved her. They got married, and now she is blessed with three adorable children, living a beautiful life, and enjoying a happy family.
A hot-tempered man or woman will always lose something important if he or she refuses to change his or her attitude toward people.
However, one way to deal with a hot-tempered person is to call him or her to order and advise them to develop good character. Give them tips that can help them manage their anger. My pastor once told me, "If you are angry, do not say anything; instead, count from one to ten, and you will calm down." Another option is to leave that environment, go to a place where you can calm down, and then come back and make peace.
In all of this, wisdom is profitable for direction. Surround yourself with positive-minded people and with people who have experienced similar situations and have become better versions of themselves. Stay close to people who have gone ahead of you and can positively influence your life. These are the few tips I can share to help us grow.
