In the moment

it takes just a split second to make a bad decision and seems like it takes a lifetime of practice to make a good one in the moment.

in the moment...yeah, that's my problem.

I think they have another couple words for it. Self -control. In the blink of an eye, I can go from the resolve to do right- to hold back words that shouldn't be uttered- to obeying the urging inside to "speak out." Funny, I also miss it and hold back words that should be spoken- in the moment.

my true problem is that a lifetime of "in the moments" build habits and character for better or worse.
