About this episode

Stop Letting Your Emotions Sabotage Your Life

Do you ever feel emotionally triggered and tossed off track for the entire day?

You are an emotional person. When emotions keep you from logically navigating your day, problems begin.

How do you control being triggered?

1) Identify what triggers a response you want or don’t want to experience.  

2) Decide how you want to feel when triggered. Make a plan to respond.

3) The next time you are triggered, recognize what is happening and execute your plan.

Identify. Decide. Respond. 

The more you catch what emotionally triggers you, the more control will have over how you feel. That is true power.
