Emotional Restraint
You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing things with logic. True power is restraint. If words control you that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass.
Warren Buffet
Life inevitably brings hard choices and heated conversations, the root of which is often selfish pride. Let cooler heads prevail in these moments of turmoil. Allow reason to guide your actions. By responding thoughtfully rather than reacting impulsively, we navigate life's challenges with greater wisdom and grace. Play the long game.
Much easier said than done.
Better a patient person than a warrior, one with self-control than one who takes a city.
Proverbs 16:32
