Emotional Skillfulness!
When one of the big three negative impulses (Anger/Irritability, Depression/Sadness or Fear/Anxiety) rears its ugly head… simply consider the initial automatic impulse in your mind, without physical reaction, and then allow your thoughts to guide the emotion to it’s proper responsible conclusion. Emotional skillfulness doesn’t come without self-awareness (being honest with how you are feeling and why) and plenty of practice in directing the powerful emotions we are all subject to daily.
Control your emotions, control your thoughts… and you control your life.
