Emotional Power

The ability to respond adequately to intense emotions and one's own gloomy mood, managing one's feelings - that is where emotional power manifests itself.

It can be mistakes in work. Failures in relationships. Disappointments in friends. Loss of loved ones. And the strength lies in continuing to live, despite all obstacles.

If emotions derail you and it takes you months to recover and overcome sadness in order to return to normal life and focus on important matters - this guarantees chronic regret and procrastination, which can last for many years.

Taking small steps towards a brighter future and achieving goals, even when it's difficult - is tough. But it is necessary. It is also necessary to develop emotional power, just like physical strength.

You remember Tyson, right? Despite losing loved ones, friends, faith in himself, and becoming disillusioned with people, he continued to train every day.

And you know that J.K. Rowling kept writing about Harry Potter after her divorce, when publishers criticized her and friends did not support her.

Marathon runners can keep running despite pain and fatigue simply because they have built up their endurance and strength. Emotional power and resilience are analogous to running.

Marathon runners started by running a few kilometers until they became stronger. Then five kilometers, until they became stronger. Then 10, 20, 50, and so on.

Emotional power is forged in the same way. If you feel bad about yourself, continue to do what you need to do. Keep going and keep going. And the more you act, despite circumstances, the stronger you become.
