Harness the Power of Your Emotions
Harness the Power of Your Emotions
For hundreds of years, we have believed our ability to use rational brain while ignoring and controlling emotions was the key to our happiness. We had it all wrong! We now know that our ability to self-actualize lies in our ability to experience and use our emotions.
New brain science has demonstrated that our emotional brain plays the central role in learning, behavior, decision making and development. As the brain is evolutionary in nature, it is wired to receive messages first from the emotional brain before it moves to the rational brain where thinking and planning occur. In order to develop, we have to build strong neural pathways between these two brains so that our emotions don’t hijack us when we least expect it.
Knowing Doesn't Change Behavior
In the past we have tried to develop or change behavior without involving our emotions or thinking about changing our brains. We believed that change and development was a matter of “using your head” or “common sense”. Will power, control and overpowering needs and emotions were promoted as the way to do it. Those who couldn’t were judged to be weak and ineffectual. No wonder we kept failing to achieve our potential!
