The True Power of Self-Control in Conflict 

When things heat up—whether on the road, in the office, or at home—the one thing that fuels the flames more than any other is ego. The need to be right or to “win” doesn’t just escalate conflicts; it drives people to act irrationally, making bad situations worse.  

The missile assaults by Iran into Israel during the Rosh Hashanah celebrations have caused shockwaves far beyond the Middle East. This escalation not only threatens a broader regional confrontation but also has direct implications for communities globally, especially those with strong cultural or religious ties to the region.

In any profession, one of the most dangerous threats doesn’t come from external obstacles but from within: complacency. This silent enemy often goes undetected, gradually eroding the attention and discipline vital for maintaining safety. The less likely a situation seems, the easier it becomes to relax and bypass protocols. No matter how skilled or experienced a team may be, when complacency sets in, even the best-laid plans can lose their effectiveness.
