Ten Emotions of Power-Excitement and Passion

4.EXCITEMENT AND PASSION. Excitement and passion can add juice to anything. Passion can turn any challenge into a tremendous opportunity. Passion is unbridled power to move our lives forward at a faster tempo than ever before. To paraphrase Benjamin Disraeli, man is only truly great when he acts from the passions. How do we "get" passion? The same way we "get" love, warmth, appreciation, gratefulness and curiosity - we decide to feel it! Use your physiology: speak more rapidly, visualize images more rapidly, move your body in the direction you want to go. Don't just casually sit and think. You can't be filled with passion if you're sluping over your desk, breathing shallowly, and slurring your speech. 5. DETERMINATION. All of the above emotions are invaluable, but there is one that you must have if you're going to create lasting value in this world. It will dictate how you deal with upsets and challenges with disappointment and disillusionme...

The Ten Emotions of Power- Love and Warmth

1. LOVE AND WARMTH. The consistent expression of  love seems to be able to melt almost any negative emotions it comes in contact with. If someone is angry with you, you can easily remain loving with them by adopting a core belief such as this marvelous one from the book A Course in Miracles: all communication is either a loving response or a cry for help. If someone comes to you in a state of hurt or anger, and you consistently respond to them with love and warmth, eventually their state will change and their intensity will melt away. 2. APPRECIATION AND GRATITUDE. I believe that all of the most powerful emotions are some expression of love, each directed in different ways. For me, appreciation and gratitude are two of the most spiritual emotions, actively expressing through thought and action my appreciation and love for all the gifts that life has given me, that people have given me, that experience has given me. Living in this emotional state will enhance your life more ...

Ten Action Signals - Loneliness

10. LONELINESS. Anything that makes us feel alone, apart, or separate from others belongs in this category. Have you ever felt really lonely? I don't think there's anybody alive who hasn't. The Message : The message of loneliness is that you need a connection with people. But what does the message mean? People often assume it means a sexual connection, or instant intimacy. Then they feel frustrated, because even when they do have intimacy, they still feel lonely. The Solution: 1) The solution to loneliness is to realizee tht you can reach out and make a connecction immediately and end the loneliness. There are caring people everywhere. 2) Identify wht kind of connection you do need. Do you need an intimate connection? Maybe you just need some basic friendship, or someone to listen to you or to laugh or talk with. You simply have to identify what your true needs are. 3) Remind yourself that what's great about being lonely is that it means, "I really care a...

Ten Action Signals - Overload or Overwhelm

9. Overload or Overwhelm. Grief, depression, and helplessness are merely expressions of feeling overloaded or overwhelmed. Grief hapens when you feel like there is no empowering meaning for something that has happened, or that your life is being negatively impacted by people, events, or forces that are outside your control. People in this state become overwhelmed and often begin to feel that nothing can change the situation, that the problem is too big-- it's permanent, pervasive and personal. People go into these emotional states whenever they perceive their world in a way that makes them feel like there's more going on that they can possibly deal with, i.e. the pace, amount, or intensity of sensations seems overwhelming. The Message : The message of being overwhelmed is that you need to reevaluate what's most important to you in this situation. The reason you're overloaded is that you're trying to deal with too many things at once, and you're tryin...
