Before You Hit Send

How destabilized are you right now?

1 = steady enough • 5 = very destabilized
Stop
One
second.
Not because you're
wrong.
Because you
can’t unsend it.
The urge to send is completely
human.
You don’t have to kill the impulse.
Just delay it.
You may feel justified.
You might be.
One stabilizing check:
Will this communication
move things forward
or just
move things?
You don’t need certainty.
Just the check.
Delay is leverage.
If you’re unsure: save as draft.
Set a 20-minute timer.
That’s enough.

Exit / Return to life

You don’t have to send anything right now.
