Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Lori Gottlieb – Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

This concept of the space between stimulus and response is common when it comes to being in control of your emotions. You can’t control what happens in your life, but you can control how you respond to it. The key is to recognize that you have this control.

If you’re not aware, this space will not exist. But as you learn to pay attention to it, it will widen. From here, your growth and maturation can begin. You can make the choices and take the actions to be the person you want to be.

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is a great book about a therapist’s experience with therapy.

It’s a great read, and has lots of quotes like the above that will challenge your thinking.
