Powerful Feelings

This page and my webpage

Fear, joy, shame, pride, sadness, love, hate, anger, excitement and calm serenity. We feel these in our minds and our bodies. They can make us act and say things that affect those around us. We can be conscious of our feelings and this is called emotional intelligence.

If we ignore or suppress our feelings we become unhappy. If we acknowledge and process them successfully we are happy. How does one process successfully? We must identify the root cause or source of negative feelings and avoid them. We must identify the root cause or source of positive feelings and cultivate them.

Hopefully we conclude that the things we avoid and the things we cultivate do no harm to those around us. Our feelings are important and maybe just as important are the feelings of those around us. And knowing this is another level of emotional intelligence.
