0:00.0	In the space between what happens to you and how you choose to respond, lies the power to transform
0:05.3	not just the moment, but the entire trajectory of your life. And that is the thought for today.
0:20.6	Welcome to Seven Good Minutes. I'm Clyde Lee Dennis. Thanks for joining me for what I believe will be seven of the most enriching minutes of your day. In today's episode of Seven Good Minutes, we talk about transforming your life and shifting from reaction to mindful response. Enjoy.
0:38.3	Between every stimulus and your response lies a space,
0:41.3	a sacred pause where your true power resides.
0:44.3	In this brief moment, you have the opportunity to choose who you want to be,

1:29.3	frustration erupts automatically. These reactions feel so immediate, so natural, that we often
1:35.4	believe we have no choice in them. But that's not true. The difference between reaction and
1:40.5	response is profound. A reaction is automatic, unconscious, driven by past conditioning
1:46.9	and emotional patterns. It happens without thought, often leaving us feeling out of control
1:52.9	and sometimes regretful afterward. A response, on the other hand, is conscious, intentional, aligned with our values, and who we want to be in the world.
2:05.0	Think of reaction as being hijacked by your emotions and past experiences.
