I feel like that's somewhat of an "out of your hands" solution. 1 man's chill alcoholic is another man's rage blackout <_<

Sadly, practice.
It's the same as everything else. You need to be exposed to it, deal with in the moment, reflect on the outcome, try to unpack WHY things went the way they did, and do it again.
There are things you can do to prepare, read some books, watch conflict analysis videos and so on, but nothing beats experience (and failure).

Meditation. Learn how to sit in complete stillness for long periods of time. It isn't easy, nothing of value truly is. I went with the Gateway Pricess. It has worked wonders with me, if people want to tell you it's spiritual, back away- they are full of shit. It's more of a martial art in my opinion, it's just people will describe it as spiritual, which I find chafes me a bit. I think it's that people use that description because of limited vocabulary.

Knowing that im right, comfortable in what i beleive, and am usually the superior humanbeing, helps to maintain the calm.
Seriously, sounds tounge and cheek but its true. Have confidence in what you believe to be right / true, and you beleive what you do, because you understand the oposing perspecrive better than your counterpart.
Ive found that bringing yourself to an honest state of greatfullness and contentment develops a sincere state of humility and curiosity which justifies the later confidence. Objectivity lies at the intersection of humility and curiosity.

Have consistency and patience with it as it takes a long time.
It usually takes so long that you don't even notice the change. Meaning, you don't wake up one day and suddenly are better with this but one day wake up and be like... Damn, I used to be much worse with this.

You determine how you will handle the problem before you enter. You choose not to raise your voice, you choose to control your anger. It is all about what you choose to do with your emotions.
Don't let the emotion control you. It is about maintaining self control.

Today on our top story, a significant amount of people today were swiftly arrested all over the world as a random outbreak of intense violence committed by adults towards children and teenagers swept the planet in the past 24 hours. Panic began to sweep many nations as theories ranged from a mental-affecting virus to an unexplainable sweep of violent mass hysteria. Law enforcement in many countries struggled to keep up with the amount of reports coming in of violence committed against minors.
However, experts were able to quickly pinpoint the source of the outbreak of violence, when they saw footage of one man being shoved into a police car who cried out, "this is bullshit! DKehoe on Neogaf said the best way to solve ANY kind of conflict is to make a threatening challenge, and if they accept that challenge, to then beat the shit out of them! I was just following his advice; he sounded so confident about it!"
As always here at Captain Obvious News, we would like to remind our viewers that A) sometimes advice from online strangers isn't always completely reliable, and B) sometimes if it is reliable and you do take said advice, don't take it literally and learn to pick up on obvious details and exceptions that shouldn't have to be spelled out by the advice giver. This is Josh Rogers, now on to sports. Mike?

If anyone has a problem with this we can take it outside.
