It's hard to implement, especially in my life. Inevitably there are people who will do whatever / act however they please regardless of the positivity you try to instill into the world.
Agreed, and I am certainly far from perfect in its execution, but that doesn't mean I stop trying. I felt very disrespected by one of the officers of IB, but that doesn't make me feel proud of getting increasingly angry and eventually disrespecting him.

I'm not sure who to attribute this thought to; it's very old. It may be Lao Tzu or it may be the Buddha:

If someone hurts you and you get angry, does your wrath lessen the harm?
