I choose composure over reaction and remember my character matters more than winning.

I’ve learned that not every moment is asking for my reaction.

Some moments are asking for restraint.

Some are asking for perspective.

When I slow myself down,

I protect my character —

and that’s worth more than being right.

Echo me if you will:

I choose composure over reaction and remember my character matters more than winning.
