Unmanaged feelings will lead to unwise decisions
Feelings are indicators not dictators
All of us have fallen for crazy because it disguises itself as pleasure with no price-tag.
Everyone has…Crazy thoughts, Crazy Feelings, Crazy Opportunities, Crazy Influences
Feelings are real but not always right.
Unmanaged feelings will lead to unwise decisions.
When we make decisions, we’re not always in charge. You don’t have to be a neuroscientist to see how the emotional brain can badly distort judgement.
- Harvard Business Review
The brain’s desire for rewards is a principal source of bad judgement, in teenagers and adults alike.
- Harvard Business Review
…your emotions serve as a cueing system—But it is also not a very smart system because it has many false alarms. There are emotional misfires. Thus, you need to evaluate your response to see if it is appropriate.
- Psychology Today
…emotions influence, skew or sometimes completely determine the outcome of a large number of decisions we are confronted with in a day.
- Herbert Simon, American Nobel Laureate Scientist
Awareness that there is a constant and complex dance between emotions and feelings could significantly improve your emotional intelligence, including your decision-making ability.
- Herbert Simon, American Nobel Laureate Scientist
What you think is the right road may lead to death.
They went to the olive grove called Gethsemane, and Jesus said, “Sit here while I go and pray.” He took Peter, James, and John with him, and he became deeply troubled and distressed.
He told them, “My soul is crushed with grief to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”
He went on a little farther and fell to the ground. He prayed that, if it were possible, the awful hour awaiting him might pass him by.
There’s a…time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance.
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—all the more as you see the day approaching.
Jesus modeled that connection grounds us in a truth greater than our crazy “feelings”
Connection with Christ, Connection with closest, Connection with common
Unmanaged feelings will lead to unwise decisions
Authentic connection grounds us to a truth greater than our feelings
