Most of the time reacting instantly does not serve us well because it usually stems from underlying assumptions and beliefs that have no basis in reality

Every time we just run or respond, we train our brains to shortcut the thinking process & react in the moment, no matter how inappropriate our reaction

Rather than simply reacting to sped & change, we need to:

Pause – stop at the red light, visit your brainThink – check your underlying thought bubbles while waiting

When you have real data to support your conclusions,put the pedal to the metal, staying within the speed limit, of course
