This week's BOLD LAW ...." Logic makes them think, emotions make them act "
Think what you / we all do when we think just emotionally....have you ever done something dumb when you acted on emotion and emotion only ? I have !.....Have you ever said something in the heat of the moment that you regretted the second it came out of your mouth ?...Yep, guilty on that one too !
And, it's not always bad to act on emotion only....doing something emotionally sometimes leads to a really good deed done...one that makes someone feel really good.
On the negative side though, people's lives have been altered forever by a violent act that also was caused by emotion. If they had just used some logic in that moment , they may have changed their minds and the act may not have occurred and the outcome could have been drastically different.
And sometimes , using only logic by itself leads to nothing ever being accomplished. You know someone that thinks about something for so long that the opportunity they are pondering just slides on by and it's gone forever ? The analytical person can miss out sometimes !
Logic does make you think and emotion makes you act. I think a healthy mix is best if you can control your emotions to take a minute to logically think through something...think about it , then take some type of action which is fueled by emotion ! Then you win more often than you lose !
Logic + emotion = winning !
