Original Advice

DO: Name your emotion before solving the problem.

Label It Before You Fix It

You chase solutions like a firefighter, but it's just weather inside your skull. Your mood barges in, steals the toolkit, and calls itself fact. Stop letting fog drive the car. Before you fix, name the squatter. Angry. Flat. Spooked. Envious. If you can't name it, you can't negotiate with it. Label first. Then move.

Naming is not poetry; it is a switch. Words turn chaos into something with edges. Once you say, 'I feel X,' your brain stops hiring lawyers and starts hiring engineers. Emotion becomes a weather report, not a prophecy. You can hold the feeling without obeying it. Name it in one breath. Solve in the next. Precision is mercy.

Cosmic Context

You are fixed air: brilliant, detached, easily drafted into storms of thought. Naming anchors your wind so your lightning hits what matters.
