Hot button.
We've all got one.
Some of us have a few!
Our hot button is that topic, or situation, or person who takes us, sometimes in a micro-moment, out of our calm and instantly into our Least Reasonable Place.
If we can get beyond the hot frustration of that triggering moment, one of the best things we can do for ourselves is get inside the moments leading up to our Hot Button Activation.
What were we thinking? Feeling? Seeing? Doing?
With careful attention, we can begin to see and feel patterns, and over time we can begin to undo the knots hidden deep inside us that are activated by that person, topic or situation.
By undoing the knots, we can free ourselves from the inner issues, and also from the hot boil over that happens when our Hot Button is pushed.
As we disempower the issues by understanding how they work, we can minimise and even disable the power of our Hot Buttons.
