Your Three Main Emotions

Hey – happy Friday all!

Can you believe it, another week flew by – just like that. How was your week this week? Did you do anything exciting, crazy, or out of the ordinary? Was it just a normal week with the normal doings? And if it was a normal week – was it good normal or bad normal?

Did you spend your days just living and being okay with it? Or did you spend your days just living and feeling like you’re barely going to make it through the day, let alone the week?

If it was the latter, I’m going to hazard a guess that this type of week isn’t unusual for you. How long have you been struggling? How often are you feeling like you can’t do this anymore?

Our emotions get memorized, just like our thoughts do.

I find it so fascinating how our brain works. It takes the thoughts, emotions, actions that we do and puts them on autopilot. Our brain is real good at being efficient and saving energy for us (ie. Brushing our teeth, driving a car) but if it’s memorizing what isn’t serving us, that’s when we have a problem.

Our emotion is a perfect example of this. The emotions that you felt yesterday are probably the ones you will feel today, and tomorrow. Because the thoughts that are producing those feelings, are the same ones that we thought yesterday and will think again tomorrow.

Get curious – whether you’re struggling or not.

What are the three main emotions that you have on a regular basis?

Yes, I’m sure you feel a range, but if you could narrow it down to the 3 main ones, what would they be?

Are those the ones that you want fueling your life?

Are you feeling how you want to feel?

If not, write down the three emotions that you want to fuel your life. What do you need to feel in order to create the life that you want?

Now how are you going to generate those emotions? What kind of thoughts create those feelings for you?

This next week, get present with what you feel on a day to day basis. And get deliberate in choosing what emotions you want to feel.

Need help with getting deliberate?

You got it – that call is a perfect place to start.

Have a wonderful weekend!
