Our feelings, drives and emotions provide nuanced directions for navigating our work to survival and thrive…
Here is a chart that summarizes the basic emotions we discussed, the purpose or function of the emotion, and what action each emotion tends to motivate.
While our emotions can feel overwhelming, at times deeply and unbearably painful, meeting our needs and gaining control of our actions starts with understanding what we’re feeling and why. Our emotions are the best signals we have for where to focus our attention and care, which needs aren’t met, and how best to meet them.
