Stop trying to feel right all the time and “BE” right!
Our emotions will always be at war with what is valuable in our lives. We need to balance our emotions with values and the truth in our lives. Reaching your max potential will mean you are good at controlling your emotions.
Feelings tell you what you want, but many times it's not what's right for you. Whichever feelings you feed will be the ones that grow. You can't pray away negative feelings, you have to quit feeding them and then replace those feelings with values.
Starve the anger, self-pity, etc. The feelings will still come, you just won't act on them. Ask yourself, “Is what I'm feeling going to move me toward my purpose? Is what I'm feeling connecting me to my BE?”
Are your talents, values and purpose keeping you connected to your truth, or are you missing out on a deep, meaningful life, living at a surface level and giving in to ordinary impulses?
There is no way around it, staying in control of emotion is adversity we must be prepared to fight every day.
Acknowledge your feelings then capture them and move forward based on what you think and believe.
Keep Coming Forward,
Jimmy Hensel
