Stop.
Pause.
Whatever you’re about to say isn’t that important. It’s likely not an emergency. You don’t have to say it…yet.
Breathe.
Think.
Ask yourself – is this something I can figure out or find out? Why is this important? Why am I / are we doing this thing?
Breathe out.
You can probably figure it out yourself. At least try.
Breathe in.
It’s time to grow up.
Breath out.
