Self-control -
Cool
It . You can heat up the
argument or help cool it down.
It is in your hands. (See Matthew
5:9.)
Don’t
Buy It. Things of eternal
worth can’t be bought.
You came here with one life
to spend. Don’t spend
it all on stuff. (See Matthew
16:26.)
Free
Filter . Self-discipline—it’s
the only sure way to block the
evil you might see, hear, or
think of repeating. (See Mosiah
4:30.)
Temper Your Temper. Having
a short fuse is not the same
as having a dynamite personality.
(See Eccl. 7:9.)
Use
Shelf Control. If it’s
not appropriate, leave it there.
(See Ps. 24:3–4.)
Smart
Mouth. When you’re
tempted to say something unkind,
it’s wise to zip your
lip. (See D&C 136:23.)
You
May Have to Eat Your Words.
Make sure they are sweet and
tender. (See Hymns, no. 232.)
Take
Out the Trash. See Alma
60:23.
