Daily MENtor Message: Master Your Emotions And Stay Cool. A Calm Mind Can Handle Any Situation!

How do you feel when someone loses their cool and completely goes off the rails emotionally about something? It's uncomfortable isn't it? Or how do you feel about yourself when YOU overreact to something? A little guilt? A little embarrassment perhaps? The hard truth is... we MUST learn to control our emotions if we want to have peace around us, and the trust and respect of others.
I speak from lots of experience, as I have created plenty of emotional scars from not keeping my emotions under control. When (not if) this happens to you, just apologize and learn from it. Let the lessons teach us the importance of mastering our emotions, especially as parents. HOW WE REACT IN FRONT OF OUR KIDS, TEACHES THEM HOW TO REACT IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS. That reality should be reason enough to want to master our emotions. It's way cheaper than therapy.
