You win some, you learn some.
The author of this book talks about eleven negative traits found in himself and the coping skills required to manage them. Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), developed by Albert Ellis, focuses on identifying and challenging irrational beliefs (IBs) that lead to emotional distress and self-defeating behaviors. These beliefs often manifest as negative traits or tendencies in a person. It is always better to let go of the excess baggage one carries and avoid emotional distress.
