Customer Reviews

Your reactions are deliberate. You can control yourself

I bought this book several years ago and was amazed at the point the author made. Simply put, emotional and other reactions are really and truly concious responses. We've just trained ourselves to rely on those "reactions" as the default. Thought is still required even if for a split-second. This makes the phrase "He made me mad" illogical. At least that's what I remember.
