When your own hand is on a hot stove, you yank it instantly. When someone else's hand is on the same stove, you hesitate. This empathy gap is natural calibration, not moral failure — but the mark of strong character is closing it. Ask yourself: 'Would I act this slowly if this were my problem?' If the answer is no, escalate, act, or remove the obstacle at the speed you'd demand for yourself.
