Happy New Year! To kick off 2021, we're going to talk about one of my favorite things: feelings. 🙃 Specifially: emotions and moods and personalities...
See, I've come to a very UNscientific belief re: our feelings. I think ~80% of our day-to-day emotions come from what's right in front of us: how we're thinking, what we're telling ourselves about our life, the meaning we're placing on the circumstances in front of us.
But...what about that other ~20%? Where do those feelings come from?
That's what I want to explore today. What are emotions? Moods? Where do our personalities come from?
It's my hope that an understanding of these concepts can help us from becoming an Eeyore, believing that that's "just how I am" and instead encourage us to get curious about whether we're in an emotion, mood state, or personality trait...and what that means for moving forward the way we want.
