Every time you catch yourself getting angry at someone else, or experiencing any other similarly negative emotion, realize that the source of that emotion isn't within you but within the yetzer hara. When you recognize that you have no vested interest in this feeling, turn that feeling on its source, get angry at the yetzer hara instead.
This clears out so much damaging negative emotion from our interpersonal relationships, so much that gets in the way of peacefully interacting with our loved ones as much as with random walkers by.
