In my book “90 Seconds To A Life You Love”, I talk about emotional strength meaning “feeling capable and being resourceful”. Feeling capable of facing life’s challenges emerges out of your experience of effectively handling the eight unpleasant feelings. Though it may seem obvious, many people maintain a faulty perception regarding emotional strength; they believe being emotionally strong means controlling, shutting down, or shutting out thoughts, feelings, needs, and perceptions — in other words, dismissing what you know.By contrast, when someone stays aware of and attuned to their experience (“know what you know”), they consistently feel more empowered and more willing to take risks in all areas of their life.Feeling capable and being resourceful are necessary in order to develop true emotional strength, self-confidence, resilience and a sense of wellbeing. This weeks question: How have you defined emotional strength?
Or expressed a different way, what makes you feel emotionally strong? I continue this discussion deeper in the first chapter of my book. It’s a must read.I’d love for you to respond on my facebook group! Join my group on Facebook LOVE MY LIFE and let me know.
