Embrace the space before a response to honor your current initiative. Take one single, useful thing noticed in the pause into your next action. Honor the deliberate pace this pause brings to your forthcoming thoughtful reply. Let initiative meet perspective in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you invite a second perspective.
