We all have a “default” mode, that range of emotions and temperament that you fall back on under stress, when busy, tired, or when you’re not at your best. For some that is a bitter, angry, critical person. For others, it’s a sadness, self-pity, withdrawn, morose.
When in doubt and under stress, remind yourself of GRACE. Always seek to cut yourself and others more slack when you are tired, stretched and anxious. Our default mode isn’t necessarily the best – reprogram your heart and mind for Grace.
