Work on your own internal dialogue. Ask yourself: - Does this need to be said? - Does this need to be said by me? - Does this need to be said by me, now? Once you get a basic functional filter set up, you can work on tone. Find a role model to "look up to" in your toxic moments - it can be anyone; Gandhi, Big Bird, Ron Swanson, Bob Ross, anyone. Have them speak first. If you like what they say, bring it forward yourself.
