In this episode, I share one of the most intense moments of my life — a real-world test of self-control when everything in me wanted to react with violence. Most people talk about building self-esteem, but the truth is, self-control is what builds it. This story will show you why mastering your emotions and actions — especially in high-stakes situations — is what truly defines strength. Sometimes, being capable of great power means knowing when not to use it.

Key Topics:

• The difference between self-control and self-esteem — and which one really leads to growth
• How to stay composed when your instincts want to take over
• Real-life example of restraint and what it taught me about strength
• Why mastering control over your capabilities changes your entire life
