Are EMOTIONS & RATIONALE Twins
EMOTIONS & RATIONALE As Twins? The no-brainer answer is ABSOLUTELY. Here's the caveat though. They DON'T behave or manifest at the same wavelength, on the same page. Never. Instead, they are poles apart from each other. Where emotions go HIGH, then that drives rationale to go LOW and conversely, when emotions go LOW, you can go all hands on deck and bet that rationale will zoom up HIGHπππTons and tons of clinical studies have presented the correlations between EMOTIONS & RATIONALE As Twins. Too bad emotions have gotten a bad rap these days. We're frequently told we should mistrust them and ignore them. It may seem that humanity, especially the make segment, has always evinced this level of skepticism towards our feelings, viewing them as unreliable guides. But the role of emotions in our lives has not always been viewed so dubiously by everyone. Instead, distrust in feelings waxes and wanes depending on the level of uncertainty. When life becomes predictable, chaotic and troubling, we tend to retreat inwardly and sometimes seeking to turn ourselves into stone. It then seems too risky to expose one's true feelings to let anything but cold hand logic dictate one's decisions. Because, the thinking goes, emotions are essentially irrationalYet studies have shown that EMOTIONS and REASON are NOT contradictory but instead COMPLEMENTARY. Studies have supported the theory that feelings have their own intelligence and wisdom and must be intertwined with our rational faculties in order to achieve the good life we all want anywayπππIn fact, we think of our thoughts as being under an autonomous control. We our our cognition to weigh options and make decisions. In contrast, we perceive EMOTIONS as just happening to us. We then conceive our feelings as clouding our thoughts which are our REAL mind. What's our FIX? DON'T let your emotions CONTROL you. Instead, grab the bull by its horns and you better CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONSπππ
