Do This, When You Feel Like Debating or Making a Big Decision, Text Yourself

When you feel like debating, when you feel like disagreeing or making a big decision over text or social media, do this. Send the text that you want to send to that person to yourself. It gives you an opportunity to voice your opinions and then read and reflect,. So what we often do is that in an impulse, in a moment, in a switch, we just react rather than respond reaction. The difference between a reaction and a response is that a reaction is impulsive. And it's filled by anger and envy and pride and ego. A response is something when you've allowed something to land with you... You're able to come from a place of respect and authenticity.
