Learning Self-Control from a Fish? Clue #6

Control your emotions before they control you!

Tess the Trout says:
"If success is your great goal,
You must practice self-control.
Use common sense in all you do.
Controlling emotions is helpful to.
I knew a fish who took the bate.
Good judgment gone, the hook he ate.
My friend was fried upon the grill,
With Self-Control he'd be here still."
~John Wooden

Self-Control makes or breaks our happiness.
Thank you for reading.
