What Do you do when frustrated ?

head out for a round of golf or a bucket of balls at the range.
All kinds of ideas and fresh motivation hits me on the range..
 
When I find myself getting burned out or hitting a wall, I usually resort to playing video games... call of duty 4 usually. I'm assuming that you couldn't get away with this at work.. plus it tends to make me cuss loudly... maybe some flash games? Tower defense rocks.

Since you're at work... maybe you should actually do some work? Just a thought.

Also, doing a couple of push-ups or jogging in place can help... of course, your co-workers will think you're nuts. That could be a plus, too...who knows ?
 
go out to the garden and play with my dog, a game of fetch or something similar.
 
i put some good music on and just chill(turn it load and sing a long:D). Or read a book. Most probably just chill with friends and laugh, share stories, make fun and mock each-other :D
Yeah i also find that when i have some questions its good to tell someone because often as im sharing i will come up with the answer myself. I often work 16h+ . I work with a business full time, then some stuff with my own business and i also do voluntary youth/children's work around 10+ hours a week.
 
hmm... frustrated... I hit the high-way with my bike pushing my little Darth Vader to the limit :) ... vrrrrooom :D
 
I put on a very creepy clown costume and then i go out and stare at little children!
 
Go to jiu jitsu class, get my ass kicked and then realize what ever was frustrating me wasn't that big a deal.
 
Usually I just beat it like crazy :smashfrea
 
Well I have the best dog ever, I normally go and play with him or ill go chill with some friends. Nothing's better then going to a friends has and destroying everything to ease your mind.
 
When I get pissed off.. things get broken and I have to get new hardware.

I've been recommended for anger management classes but I snapped the teacher's neck.. not really. I really have been told I should attend classes though.

So what do I do when I'm pissed? Well.. I have a desk that's currently being held up by nails now, half of the shelves are missing and broken, I've gone through several mouses and keyboards and I am sure if you look hard enough you can still find pieces of my old tower around here.. and I do mean pieces.. that thing was shattered into many.
 
A good old wank and a fag is bob a job for me.

Although i don't really do frustration, everyone says i'm too laid back. Literally nothing gets on my tits, gets me stressed or worried - with regard to money and work anyway. It's part of the reason why it took me years to make money - i just didn't care, still don't. At all. :D
 
I currently suffer from this.. how'd you start putting your ass to work?

Constantly reminding myself of what i haven't done. I first learned about marketing in the early to mid 90's as a teenager, got into the internet (of sorts) in 96/7 ish, and kind of never stop learning/reading.

This is gonna sound a touch arrogant, but i assure you it's not, but i talked someone into starting a direct mail business, who became a millionaire, about 10 years ago, that kinda annoys me enough to work. Sometimes. :D

I also have been around long enough to experience the birth of many marketers and their techniques, only to feel quite smug about their "weak" marketing, again to watch them become rich.

I also had the foundations in place to start an online computer software/hardware ecommerce site in 1998, which due to a major accident and a year in hospital, meant was put to one side indefinitely.

You'd think the accident would have motivated me, but if anything it made me even more laid back. Motivating myself is a constant 24/7 battle.

I just like to remind myself that i've been involved in marketing for over 15 years and have little to show for it. And then to ask myself whether i want to be another 15 years down the road with the same trappings. :)
 
When I get stressed or really frustrated I try to get the wife to give me a bj, unfortunately it normally doesn't work and that makes it even worse. Then a nice relaxing walk outside or I come here and read the forums to help re-motivate myself. If all else fails go to a porn site and take matters into my own hands.
 
I grab my guns and head to the range. Nothing like a few hundred rounds to center me and let all that frustration and anger out.
