Self-Awareness<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2518\" data-end=\"2573\">Notice your emotional state before it affects behavior.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2575\" data-end=\"2588\">Ask yourself:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2590\" data-end=\"2696\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1opuh0y\" data-start=\"2590\" data-end=\"2609\">Am I irritated?<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1havy6u\" data-start=\"2610\" data-end=\"2634\">Am I mentally tired?<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"w9bayj\" data-start=\"2635\" data-end=\"2665\">Am I rushing this patient?<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1rgkfmr\" data-start=\"2666\" data-end=\"2696\">Am I reacting defensively?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"2698\" data-end=\"2725\">Awareness gives you choice.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1xqpv18\" data-start=\"2727\" data-end=\"2748\">2.
