Anger is an emotion all people feel. How we respond is our choice. Yes, I said it is a choice. Unfortunately our core beliefs, world views and actions we have observed in others may have affected our choices. Each of us can access our emotional brain or our thinking brain. The thinking brain can help us slow down our responses giving us time to respond appropriately. The emotional brain not so much!
Remember when mom or dad said “stop, count to ten?” Yes they were teaching you to use your thinking brain and slow down before you speak. Take the time to think before you respond to things that irritate of anger you. You won’t regret it!!
