Habits 2 Goals: The Habit Factor® Podcast with Martin Grunburg S5: 33: The Value of Negative Emotions
“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” ~Carl Jung
“Where there is hope in the future there is happiness in the present.”
Is there any value to negative emotions? Well, it may depend on the specific negative emotion.
In truth, there IS value to many negative emotions; they serve a purpose. Is fear beneficial? It certainly can be — it can even be a motivator and even a lifesaver — as long as it doesn't prevent you from moving forward, growing and challenging yourself.
As the Carl Jung quote above explains, within certain emotions, such as anger and irritation, we can turn inward and grow in our own emotional intelligence. We can use these emotions to grow ourselves -- as long as we don't dwell in the negative space.
But it's important to make it a HABIT to constantly be aware of our emotions and shine the spotlight on ourselves.
Listen in for insight into turning negative feelings into emotional positives.
Enjoy the episode!
