WITI - The Number One Reason You Don't Get What You Want

Some good business advice from another member of Women in Technology, International:

WITI - The Number One Reason You Don't Get What You Want: "What most people don't realize is that between the stimulus, their emotion, and their response is another important step. The real sequence is as follows: event (stimulus) - INTERPRETATION - emotional reaction - and then response. In the intensity of the moment you will tend to breeze right by the 'interpretation step,' blissfully unaware that there might be many possible interpretations of what just happened and that other responses and actions might serve you better than the ones you are currently rushing to take."
