You may feel impulsive and impatient today, and this could lead you to make careless decisions. You may want to spend some time exploring the source of these feelings and determining if you have emotional needs that are not being met. You can then fulfill these needs in healthy ways instead of impulsively reaching for a superficial substitute. You can also choose to stop yourself whenever you feel like acting impulsively today. Just by stopping for a few moments, going inward, and gathering your thoughts, you can gain a greater understanding of the emotions that are driving your actions. You will then be able to make better decisions that serve your higher needs rather than act hastily.

Developing an awareness and understanding of our impulsive whims encourages a balanced emotional state and gives us greater control over our actions. While it may be human nature to seek a quick fix for our uncomfortable emotions, these solutions are transient at best. If we instead choose to explore the root cause of our emotions, we will be able to resolve them rather than quiet them temporarily. This process helps us to gain a greater understanding of our needs and empowers us with more control over our emotional responses. We then benefit from a lasting sense of inner balance and serenity. Taking the time to explore your emotional whims today will empower you with the ability to meet your needs in healthy ways.
