How many times a day do you find yourself
offended? Or triggered in response to
what someone else has said or done?
If you are anything like me, it happens to
you more than you would hope for. I have started to track and reflect on how
often major issues have bubbled over from what was simply an emotional response
to what could easily be determined as a misunderstanding—not a malicious intent
to harm.
So the question then becomes, how do we
spare ourselves this all-or-nothing reaction and how do we become so skilled to
instead orient ourselves to stop, consider and then respond?
