EMOTIONOLOGY - EMOTIONALLY GIFTED

Today I want us to see how Emotions are a gift and not a curse.

First, let’s begin by looking at what Emotional actually means.

Emotional, simply means that you are feeling, feelings.

Happy, sad, afraid, lonely, mad, etc.

I don’t know about you but isn’t that what makes us Humans. We feel.

We are not robots, nor AI. We are not animals, plants, or vegetation, although scientists report that they too have feelings. We are Human.

Having Emotions is a Human trait, its innate. We were created with them. It’s a part of our original DNA. Even our Creator is Emotional.

The word Emotion comes from the Latin verb, Emovere, which means - to move, move out, or move through.

That means our Emotions are how we move out and move through, life’s situations. If we don’t use emotions, then we get stuck and can’t move.

Emotions give us HI, Human Intelligence.

Emotions are not a curse. They are a Gift! It’s Time for a Mindset Reset!

We need to be more Emotionally Intelligent. We need to learn more about our emotions, a.k.a. EMOTIONOLOGY, the study of Emotions.

We don’t need to learn how to control our emotions, but how to use them properly. The real issue concerning Emotions is “User Error”.

Look at the insight this Proverb offers us.

“Through Wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established. And by knowledge the rooms will be filled with precious riches.”

Let’s put this proverb to use. We need Wisdom, which is Truth. We need Understanding, which is Insight. We need Knowledge, for Application that’s how we grow and develop our Emotional Intelligence.

“When we train our emotions, we make our own path.” BT3

Notice I said Train not Control, there’s a difference.

The word Control suggests, ruling over, taking mastery of. The problem is, Emotions cannot be controlled. Many have tried and failed.

Here’s an example. Have you ever been serious about something you were saying or doing and then someone said something funny, a funny story, told a joke, tickled you, or you had a funny thought?

What happened next? You laughed, smiled, giggled, but you couldn’t control that emotion. Why? Because Emotions can’t be controlled.

WISDOM – TRUTH

Emotions can be Trained. The word Train is from Old French, trahiner, which means to pull or to draw. Like a train pulls the other cars along.

Emotions were meant to be pulled or drawn too. From what? Us

Do you know what Emotions are? They are Energy. Energy inside of us! Energy that is drawn and pulls us along with it.

You know how when someone enters a room or a space, and you say wow, they’ve got a bad vibe or they’re bringing bad ENERGY around.

Energy is powerful. The whole world is looking for sources of energy; radiation, solar, thermal, nuclear, wind, water, you name it, they want it.

UNDERSTANDING - INSIGHT

Yet not many are talking about Emotional Energy that is in each of us.

Energy is a Force of Nurture! Not Nature. It’s a hidden treasure within each one of us.

Emotional Energy makes us rich, once we learn to Nurture it.

Emotional Energy is our Superpower. So how do we Train/Mine it?

KNOWLEDGE – APPLICATION

When life is spiraling out of control we might want to check our Emotional bank account, we could be “NSF” Non-Sufficient Feelings.

Emotions are a form of energy that flows through the body and affects thoughts, feelings, behaviors and ultimately our life.

Energy is Power. We have untapped power inside of us. Power is the rate in which Energy moves. Emovere! (Emotions) Let them Move us!

Understanding emotions as energy can help us better direct them. When we recognize the power associated with a particular emotion, we can learn to train that Emotional Energy to achieve a healthier outcome.

For example, if an individual is feeling angry, they feel a surge of energy in their body. By recognizing the physical sensation from the energy associated with anger, you can take steps to regulate that energy. Work out, go for a run, use it to improve your well-being and your mind set. 

Whenever the anger impulse comes/returns, we must train that energy and put it to good use, not destruction. Use the power for good.

Energy is just energy. It is neither good nor bad. The user determines it.

The GRAND FINALOLOGY

Energy wants to move. When stuck emotions cause stress, it's the energy asking us to help it transition/move into another state of existence.

Turn the energy, from sadness, or empathy, into philanthropy.

Turn the energy, from hate, into a passion for education or rehabilitation.

Turn the energy, from disgust, into discovery. Use it to find a solution.

Releasing negative energy, also makes room, for more positive energy.

Emotions are Energy Impulses. Find good, productive, ways to use the power, from those impulses, to give yourself and others a better life.

Did you know that 70% of our body’s total Energy, comes from our Emotions.

That’s a lot of Energy. That’s a lot of man or woman power.

Renewable Energy. Reuseable Energy. Your Energy.

Be the power you need to advance your life. There’s no power struggle!

Energy is just energy. It is neither good nor bad. The user determines it.

All the great ones. learned to use their energy.

I believe, You too, are a great one!

This is a Thompson Truth
