How we feel influences the decisions we make. Our mind consults our body along with our brain.
Emotions reveal appraisals.
Emotions interrupt and alert us to important events. They are accurate indicators of what we truly regard as important. The core relational theme of each emotion is constant; if we know the theme that evoked it and the story it tells. Because our emotions depend on our appraisals, knowing the resulting emotions can tell us a lot about the thinking that went into the appraisal. Emotions help us read minds; they provide valuable clues to what is truly important to us and to others. For example:
·         We become surprised because the event was unexpected.
·         We are afraid because we perceive the threat of imminent danger.
·         We are anxious because of an uncertain threat.
·         We become angry because we blame someone for an unjust loss.
·         We feel guilty because we have failed to meet another’s standard of behavior.
·         We feel shame because we failed to meet our own standards.
·         We gloat when we are pleased about another person’s mishap.
·         We hate when we dislike others enough to blame them for our own troubles.
·         We are sad because we have suffered a loss.
·         We envy someone because we want what they have.
·         We are jealous because we fear we are unloved.
·         We become disgusted when we encounter something toxic.
·         We are happy because we are progressing toward a goal.
·         We are proud because we are feeling good about ourselves.
·         We are relieved when a treat has passed.
·         We are hoping for the best.
·         We are in loved! Who do we love? Why do we resonate together? Why are we attracted to them? Why do we care about them?
·         We are grateful for the unselfish kindness toward us.
·         We pity someone; we feel compassion for them. Why we are moved by their feeling?
·         Ambivalence reveals unresolved conflict between two or more goals. What goals are conflicting? What values can resolve the conflict?

An insult hurts, but it is important to resolve in your own mind, based on evidence, why the insult hurts. What loss does it represent to you? Decide if the insult:
·         Is an unjustified attack that does not decrease your stature, diminish your self-image, nor tarnish your public image or reputation, or
·         Is justified and has diminished your public image or reputation, or
·         Is justified and has diminished or revised your self-image.
Begin the analysis by deciding if the insult is based on information that accurately represents you. Then reflect and consider if your image accurately represents your stature. If you decide the insult is unjustified then you can simply ignore it or you can describe why it is unfair and ask your offender for an apology. If your public image exceeds your stature, then the insult may be a justifiable retaliation for your arrogance and it may contain an important message you can learn from. If the insult is justified it may cause you to feel shame and then lead you to revise your self-image to better align it with your stature. The insult is never justified if it is an attempt to reduce your stature below the threshold of human dignity.

Not until I became a mother did understand how much my mother had sacrificed for me; not until I became a mother did I feel how hurt my mother was when I disobeyed; not until I became a mother did I know how proud my mother was when I achieved; not until I became a mother did I realize how much my mother loves me.
A man leaves all kinds of footprints when he walks through life. Some you can see, like his children and his house. Others are invisible, like the prints he leaves across other people’s lives, the help he gives them and what he has said—his jokes, gossip that has hurt others, encouragement. A man does not think about it, but every where he passes, he leaves some kind of mark. All these marks added together are what man means.
Our perceptions are more accurate when we are alert, aware, and conscious of our environment.
The obvious is not always true, and many things that are true are not at all obvious.
Everyone thinks; it is our nature to do so. But much of our thinking, left to itself, is biased, distorted, partial, uninformed, or down-right prejudiced.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Knowing yourself requires a careful examination of your own values and beliefs. What are they? How did they originate? What are they based on? Why do you hold these beliefs?
