Before you react, STOP
The next time something (or someone) tests your patience, remember to STOP:
S – Stop what you’re doing or saying
T – Take a couple of slow, deep breaths, focusing on the exhale
O – Observe your thoughts and emotions; acknowledge them as present and natural
P – Proceed with considered words and actions.
