Bhagavad Gita 2.56 — Free from fear and anger

दुःखेष्वनुद्विग्नमनाः सुखेषु विगतस्पृहः। वीतरागभयक्रोधः स्थितधीर्मुनिरुच्यते ॥

duḥkheṣvanudvignamanāḥ sukheṣu vigataspṛhaḥ | vītarāgabhayakrodhaḥ sthitadhīrmunirucyate ||

Meaning

One whose mind is not shaken by sorrow, who does not crave pleasures, and who is free from attachment, fear and anger, is called a sage of steady mind.

In today's life

Notice when craving, fear or anger is driving you, and pause before you act.
