Here is a question I liked in The Daily Stoic Journal and my answer to it:
What would happen if I took a second to cool down?
- Feelings would be saved.
- Words that shouldn’t be spoken would be silenced.
- Trust would be maintained.
- Regret would be unnecessary.
- Guilt would be spared.
- Relationships would be preserved.
- Judgment would be deferred.
- Love would be honored.
- Day would be made.
- Pride would be deserved.
- Self would be disciplined.
