A NEW THINKING ERA
Anger hits fast. Your response can be slower.
A NEW THINKING ERA
Your jaw tightens. You want to answer right now.
A NEW THINKING ERA
Feeling angry doesn’t mean you must act immediately.
A NEW THINKING ERA
Pause. Unclench your hands. Take one unhurried breath.
A NEW THINKING ERA
Name what happened. Don’t attack the person.
A NEW THINKING ERA
“I want to discuss this. Give me a moment.”
A NEW THINKING ERA
Calm isn’t silence. Choose a response you can stand behind.
