Our power is in the space that we can create between stimulus and response. Creating that space is the key to avoiding the second arrow. To create the space and move forward after a negative event: • Pause: Our immediate reactions are almost always emotional, and we make bad decisions in the heat of emotion. • Reset: Allow yourself to feel the pain of the first arrow, but remind yourself that you are in control of the second one. Give yourself that power. • Choose: With a more balanced perspective, choose your response. As Frankl famously said, “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
