Anger. Buddha. Founder patterns.
Here’s your 3 insights in 3 minutes.

🔥 Hold or Release
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
When you think about it, we always have a choice.

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”
What are you choosing?
