You have the ability to choose your reactions.

Summary

This quote suggests that we have the power to control our reactions to different situations. Rather than automatically responding out of habit or instinct, we can consciously make a choice about how we react. It implies that we are not completely at the mercy of external events and circumstances, but have the freedom to decide how we respond emotionally and behaviorally. By recognizing this ability, we can take greater ownership of our actions and cultivate a more proactive and mindful approach to life.
