How to Stop Being Impulsive


Listen Later

Did you see what happened at the Oscars when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock? I am sure Smith is still going through some remorse or guilt at what he did impulsively. Not being able to stop ourselves from doing something impulsive will cost us more harm than good. He may have felt great releasing his anger after what he did. But then, that lasted for only a few minutes. His remorse lasted longer.  


Growing up, you may have heard from your parents or teachers that you should always try to be the bigger person. Every day that we decide to restrain our impulses is a day to be proud of our decisions. But we've got to practice and pay attention to our emotions and behaviors. 


So in this episode, I share ways to rein ourselves in when we are on the verge of reacting negatively. May these tips help you practice avoiding being impulsive and staying on the path of light and peace.
