You are human. You are an emotional being. Your decisions and actions are often lead by your emotions. However the best decisions are made in a controlled emotional state. Intense fear or bouncing excitement can cloud judgement in decision making. This applies to all areas of life. This is why so many impulsive rash decisions get made and then are regretted. In any decision making situation it’s crucial to level off your emotional state first before finalising decision. Emotions often distract you from gut instincts. Remember your gut is your personal GPS. You must tune into it. So from now on when you’ve decisions to make resist the initial impulse. Calm emotions down. Tune into gut. Proceed.
