Identifying our emotions

Happy thought provoking Thursday. Our positive quote of the day states: “Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others, and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships,” by Travis Bradberry. Some emotions, like sadness or anger can be overwhelming. Yet, it’s not the emotions themselves that cause us to spiral out of control, it’s our reaction to those emotions. The sooner we can identify our emotions, the more control we have. Instead of fighting or rationalizing our emotions, just feel, process, and gain strength from them. #Beinspired #Emotions #LuminousQuotes
