Daily Critical Thinking Tip:
Pause before you react.
When you feel a strong emotional response to a headline, comment, email, or claim—stop. Ask yourself:
What specifically triggered me?What assumption am I making right now?What evidence do I actually have?

If you can master the pause, you gain control over your reasoning.
