make space

“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.” – Viktor Frankl

Your mind is powerful. But power doesn’t always equal accuracy.
Your thoughts—especially in certain situations—can be misleading, exaggerated, or incomplete.

When you’re tired, angry, anxious, or stressed, your thoughts tend to distort reality. They tell stories that aren’t fully true. They present opinions as facts. They rush to conclusions.

Freedom is found not in reacting to every thought, but in creating space between stimulus and response.
In that space, you find clarity.
In that space, you find choice.
In that space, you find power.

Remember: Your mind is a tool—not a master.
Train it. Question it. Guide it.

The more space you create, the more freedom you live with.
