People who find themselves on the verge of yelling at queue-jumpers or crafty colleagues could be helped by a simple exercise -- using the "wrong" hand, the Daily Mail reported.
Right-handers should get into the habit of using a computer mouse, stirring a cup of coffee or opening a door with their left hand -- and left-handers should do the opposite.
Training yourself to use the "wrong" hand seems to act as practice for other kinds of self control, such as being polite. Just two weeks of the exercises reduce the tendency to act on impulse, said a study published in the journal Current Directions in Psychological Science.

常用“生”手可提高自控力
??????? 總是忍不住要向插隊的人或狡詐的同事大吼的人只需要一種簡單的運動就可以有效控制自己的情緒——經常使用不太熟練的那只“生”手。
???????據英國《每日郵報》報道，《心理科學最新動向》上的研究稱：慣用右手的人應該試著養成用左手使鼠標、攪咖啡、開門等習慣；相反，左撇子則應嘗試多用右手。
???????試著用“生”手還可以增強人們在其它方面的自控力，比如保持禮貌，而僅僅兩周的練習就能使沖動行事的可能性降低。
