How To Deal With Rude People

Inspired by an infographic created by personalexcellence.co which I discovered on Pinterest.

What is the best way to deal with rude people?
It's Friday - and I am sure no matter how much we try to avoid them, I bet you have had the pleasure of dealing with some rude people this week.

It seems rudeness is everywhere, and dealing with it - is just part of modern daily life. But does this always have to be the way?
"As children we are told not to respond to rudeness - but you can't let rude people have their way! I hope these techniques help you deal with them better"

In Personal Excellence's blog they recommend focusing on the positive, and gratitude:
"When you come across rude people next time, think about the positive things instead. Be grateful that you have kind people around you. Be grateful that you have things that many others don’t have. Nurture your relationship with those you care about instead. This way you will grow in positivity and attract more great people into your life."

Do you agree? What techniques do you have for dealing with rude people?
(Apart from flipping the bird or swearing till you run out of breathe - two of my personal favourites!)
