Can emotions be controlled? I am convinced that it is possible, and when we are able to manage them, our opportunities grow immediately, both personal and professional.
Knowing how we respond to the stimuli around us and how to calibrate the amount of emotional responses needed will help us not to waste our strength and energy inappropriately, for example, if I get very angry with a stranger, which I will probably never see again. , I waste precious energy unproductively and, on that, that feeling of discontent will last much longer than it would be.
- I’m afraid many people think that emotions are not controllable.
- That they simply arise and flood us.
- We feel fear or love and we don’t know how or why and.
- Worse.
- We don’t intend to understand and manage.
- Those feelings.
When we don’t delve into this topic, we don’t take enough time to know and understand the different emotions and how they affect us.
For this reason, we sometimes confuse feelings; you may think that someone is angry when they are really concerned and this confusion can have serious consequences on our interpersonal relationships, in order to distinguish feelings, we must first know them and identify them within ourselves, and then be able to do the same with others.
You have to know who they are and stop to find out what you’re feeling right now, answering the question: what exactly do I feel?
Thus, the first phase would be identified to be able to manage emotion, it is easy to recognize emotions, as we see them in others, what makes them complex is the fact that they often appear at the same time.
We could say, “I’m happy, ” but what do you really mean?Which of these options describes your feeling?
Once you know this answer, you can go further, analyze it and make decisions about it, separate and identify emotions allows us to know how we feel, get to know each other better and, from there, face our challenges more effectively.
If we had been taught to identify and manage emotions from a young time, life would be easier if we didn’t have the opportunity to learn than when we were little, now is the time to start.
