Lesson Overview

29.24 – How to Know When You Need a Break, Not a Fight: Sometimes the best way to win is to walk away before things explode. When your thoughts feel sharp and your heart races, that’s not weakness—it’s your body begging for a break. Arguing while flooded with anger rarely solves anything; it only creates more damage. Learning to say “I need a minute” shows strength and self-control. Taking space lets your brain reset, giving you the clarity to respond wisely. When you come back calm, people take your words more seriously. Breaks are not avoidance—they’re emotional resets. Knowing when to pause instead of push saves relationships and keeps your dignity intact.
