When you feel the urge to act early, what gives you a reason to wait?

Lots of traders describe a specific feeling right before they enter or exit: a tightness, a sense that the market is moving without them. That urge is worth noticing, because it often shows up after a stretch of waiting rather than after a clear setup. Some people use a fixed pause, such as stepping away for a few minutes or writing down the one condition that has to be true before they act. Others check whether the trade still matches the plan they wrote before the session started. The useful part seems to be making the pause concrete enough that it can be followed when emotions are running high. What do you do in that moment, and how did you come to choose it?
