It’s easy to let emotions dictate our responses.
Anger flares, sadness overwhelms, and suddenly, we’ve said or done something we regret.
However, while feelings are involuntary, our actions are always a choice.
You might feel furious, but you decide whether to yell, or take a deep breath.
You might feel defeated, but you choose whether to give up, or try again.

True responsibility lies in recognizing this distinction.
Our emotions are internal experiences; our behavior impacts the world and those around us.
Own your feelings, but master your reactions.
That’s true emotional intelligence.
