Transcript
00:00Someone comes and says something unpleasant to you.
00:03Do you need to just immediately, unthinkingly explode, as most of us do?
00:10Or can you tell yourself, I am not an animal.
00:13I can wait, I can be patient.
00:15Let me at least think over it.
00:17Animals are supposed to react.
00:19Human beings are supposed to understand and then respond.
00:22That's the difference between reaction and response.
00:25Response involves understanding.
00:28Reaction is just chemical.
00:31Whenever you find emotions taking control of yourself, resist, fight.
00:36That's the one battle worthy to be fought.
00:40The external battles can wait a little.
00:43If you can fight the internal battle well,
00:45you will find the external battles are far easier to win.
00:48Be a master of your own mind.
