Managing Our Emotions Through Other People
Summary
- We probably spend more time preventing emotions rather than yelling.
- We prevent the yelling by preventing the emotion of other people.
- Trying to prevent an emotion in other people isn’t 100% effective.
- Be intentional of why you’re preventing someone’s emotions.
- If you like your reason, and you’re intentional about why you’re doing it, then go ahead. The key is intentional.
- It can be exhausting to prevent someone else from having a ‘negative’ experience and ultimately we’re trying to prevent ourselves from experiencing a negative emotion.
