Emotional Intelligence: Proven Techniques of Emotional Intelligence
Most of us create the following forms of disturbances inside our minds: anxiety, tension, fear, irritation, frustration, anger, sadness, depression, worry, powerlessness, hopelessness are but a few of the many painful emotional experiences! One minute the high of excitement and the next moment the depths of sadness. We have been taught to believe this is good, normal and healthy, but it is not – it leads only to addiction to the emotional disturbance in our minds and the chemicals they stimulate in our bodies. When people hear this they immediately think that without emotion life would be without feeling and meaning, a cold and boring existence. In fact the opposite is true. Free of emotional disturbance we are able to feel better, care deeper and better. We also learn how to truly motivate ourselves instead of being dependent on emotions to motivate us. Emotion is the lazy man's form of motivation. There is very little power in emotion. It always fizzles out fast!
