Most bad decisions are made in moments where emotions cloud our logic and judgement.
Learning to identify those moments is a critical life skill.
If you feel like your emotions might be swaying you, donโ€™t send that email or text.
Wait 24 hours and decide.
One simple trick:
Set a 60-second delay timer on all emails.
This gives you a built-in backstop to pull the plug on those emotion-laden messages before they actually send.
When you make a habit of the 24-Hour Rule, youโ€™ll quickly find that 99% of those emotional responses werenโ€™t actually worth sending.
Itโ€™ll save you a whole lot of relationship challenges and stress.
And if you notice that there are certain people who are consistently eliciting these emotional reactions and requiring you to invoke the 24-Hour Rule...
It probably makes sense to just cut them out of your life.
