Are You Aware Of The Mirror-Like Nature Of Your Feelings?

Whatever you feel is a reflection of your mental state.

Whenever you blame, look within. Whenever you get angry or frustrated, look within. It all starts within, and any outside source that seems to be the cause of your emotions just taught you a valuable lesson about yourself. They, or the situation had nothing to do with how you perceived them.

The experience is created by the perceiver.

Is this an uncomfortable practice? Yeah...a lil bit But it's freeing because when you take full responsibility for your thoughts and feelings nothing has power over you anymore.

Thoughts?

      I got you Ryan!

      You are dead on. Emotional intelligence is probably the single greatest trait a human can posses to live a happy and fulfilled life. Coming from a business school and be surrounded by business minded people, I often hear emotional intellgence as it relates to business, to making money, etc, but the real value in the skill is in your personal life.


      When you feel those feelings of jealousy, anger, frsutration, anxiety, as you said Ryan, these are all coming from within. They may be influenced by external factors, but the derivation of these feelings is from our own internal perceptions and thoughts.

      EI is about recognizing emotions, working with them, controlling them, refocusing them etc.

      Super powerful stuff
