Understanding Emotional Reactions

When someone is doing something or about to do something in a way I don't want it to be done—and I'm not able to accept it—I become angry. When someone is doing something or about to do something in a way I don't want it to be done—and I'm able to accept it—I remain tolerant.

When someone has something or someone is able to produce results that I'm not able to produce—and I'm not able to accept it—I become jealous. When someone has something or someone is able to produce results that I'm not able to produce—and I'm able to accept it—I get inspired.

When I'm encountering uncertainty or am about to encounter uncertainty, which I'm not sure how I'm going to handle—and I'm not able to accept it—it causes fear in me. When I'm encountering uncertainty or am about to encounter uncertainty, which I'm not sure how I'm going to handle—and I'm able to accept it—I feel adventurous about it.

When someone has done something that has emotionally hurt me—and I'm not able to accept it—it develops hatred in me. When someone has done something that has emotionally hurt me—and I'm able to accept it—it helps me forgive them.

When someone is present in my thoughts but is not physically present—and I'm not able to accept it—I say I'm missing you. When someone is present in my thoughts but is not physically present—and I'm able to accept it—I say I'm thinking of you.

The Emotional Equation

Thus, the Emotional Equation becomes:

Something + acceptance = positive emotion

Something + non-acceptance = negative emotion

So, it is not something or someone who is making me feel positive or negative, but it's my acceptance or non-acceptance of something or someone, which impacts things.

Excellent!  I appreciate most: "When someone is doing something or achieving results that I am unable to produce, and I am able to accept it, I get inspired." Good one!
