“There is no right reaction. There is only your reaction.”
“You're only responsible for being honest, not for someone else's reaction to your honesty.”
“You can only control your own actions. Not other people’s reactions.”
“Things can go three ways—left, right, or straight. If you stand on one side, either the left or the right, you will have the quickest reaction 1/3rd of the time, the second quickest reaction 1/3rd of the time, and the slowest reaction 1/3rd of the time. But if you stand in the middle, you’ll have the quickest reaction 1/3rd of the time, and you’ll have the second quickest reaction time 2/3rds of the time. I guess things can also go backwards, but the middle is still the best place to stand.”
“You have the ability to choose your reactions.”
“There are no failures - just experiences and your reactions to them.”
