"عندما تتفاعل، فإنك تسمح للآخرين بالتحكم بك. عندما تستجيب، فأنت من يتحكم."

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, things happen that make us angry or upset. When we immediately yell or act without thinking, we let our emotions take over, and other people can easily push our buttons. This means they control our actions. For example, if someone says something mean to you and you shout back, they have made you lose your cool. However, if you take a moment to breathe and think before replying, you choose how to behave. In that moment, you have control over yourself. Like if someone is rude to you, and instead of shouting, you calmly explain your feelings or just walk away. This way, you stay calm, make better choices, and don't let anyone else control how you act.
