Emotions. Learn to understand your emotions first. Only after that, show your reaction to the situation
Emotions.
Most interesting and important part of this post.
However, many of us accept the fact that we are not taught to notice and realize our emotions as a daily routine.
That’s why my tip is to pay attention to your emotions in day to day activities and communications.
Emotions can charge you with joy or make you feel weak, guilty, or sad.
Psychologists identify seven basic emotions:
- Happiness or joy.
- Surprise,
- Fear,
- Anger,
- Sadness,
- Guilt,
- Shame.
On one hand, there are some options to make you feel happy and cause really positive emotions for you:
- your favorite song,
- parfumes and aromas you like,
- a beautiful tea cup,
- some tasty food,
- any beautiful dress or suit,
- some nice things to make your home cozy, where you can recharge yourself after a day.
I mean, some things you love cause positive emotions for you.
On the other hand, you should fix your emotions every time when:
- you do some task,
- you communicate with a group of people,
- you talk to one concrete person,
- you visit some new place,
- you have a new experience,
- survive the situation,
- get know some information.
Small task for you:
Write down what emotions you feel while reading this post.
Why are your emotions so important to you?
Understanding your true feelings helps you to save your energy and resources.
You should do:
Write down your emotions daily, especially after communication with new people. Let go in your life only people who respect you, your time, your expierence, your ideas, your knowledge.
You shouldn’t do:
Avoid toxic people who drain your energy. Don’t communicate to people who keep telling lies. You will waste your time to find the truth in every situation you face with them.
Live your better life and avoid toxic people, negative situation, and therefore, save you energy and resourses for your self-qrowth to be happy and enjoy the life!
My personal productivity tips
Body. I have 15-minutes workout I enjoy daily. I also like walking.
Mind. I study German and l quizzes.
Emotions. I notice my emotions after meetings, events, and in the evening.
I have my rituals to calm down and support myself.
My suggestions:
Notice your emotions after communicating with people.
Trust your feelings.
Especially, be honest with yourself when you talk to relatives.
When you spend much time with the same people, it doesn’t mean they respect you. They may tell lies and aren’t honest.
You should pay attention to actions, not to words.
Don’t let people disrespect you.
Believe in yourself and look for people who respect you, value your time, your work, your experience.
Realizing your emotions makes your life easier and happier.
Final thoughts
Body. Mind. Emotions.
Start with the simplest steps: take a pan and a piece of paper and write down your emotions today.
After that, choose your a beauty routine for this evening and a book to read this month.
You should choose a workout for body health, not for one day, test different exercises and rhythms that suit you.
Add new creative options to my lists above to the category body health and beauty routine, daily activities for the mind, and things that bring you positive emotions.
Write your results in comments!
See you in the next post!
