00:00The idea is, instead of just acting on your emotions, instead of just acting out of anger,
00:05you step back and you catch yourself and you go through a process. First, you are aware
00:10that you don't know where your anger is from. You've made that decision, you understand it.
00:14You step back and you go, what is it that I'm really, really angry about? And in the moment
00:19that you catch yourself, you stop yourself from doing probably something stupid, saying something
00:24that'll get you in trouble. 80% of the mistakes you make in life come from this fact that you do
00:29things without being aware. You react emotionally when you could have taken that half step back,
00:34thought a little more deeply. So the idea is, awareness, self-awareness is the key to everything
00:42here.
