The SEAL technique

For someone or something that has made you annoyed.

This was taught me by my workplace mentor. I share it in the hope that it might help someone else.

My mentor and I used to communicate by email. Often I would write to them after some situation had upset me. I'd describe the situation in a long rant, and then ask "what do I do?"

In response I'd get:

Yep, a picture of a baby seal.

My mentor's theory was that is is largely impossible to be annoyed when looking at a baby seal.

Do you agree?

I called it the "seal" treatment. Of course it wouldn't solve the problem, we'd talk through the situation as well. But, it would get me into a better head space for finding a way forward.

I dare 7 cup-ers to fill this thread with as many different pictures of cute baby seals as possible.
