Learn to keep your mouth shut as much as possible. Don't repeat yourself. Making your point once is much more powerful than repeating it over and over again. This applies in work situations too. Think of yourself like a lawyer presenting a brief. Say what you think, then keep your mouth shut. And don't respond to words that are designed to make you angry. Ignore them. If your partner or father or friend baits you by saying something like: “You're just like your mother” or “You always say that!” recognize it for what it is and tune it out.
