Ecstasy and Agony of Emotions

I am in love = Life is wonderful.

I am out of love = I hate living.

Emotions motivate us, help us take action, boost our energy and make life wonderful.

And then …

Wham!

They pass and leave us tired, disappointed and hurt.

It is like a roller coaster ride.

But there is a way to eat your cake and have it too. And that takes planning for success and a clear mental picture. This mental picture creates the container for the emotions to be directed and produce results.

Without the mental image the emotions vanish into the sand like water and without the emotions, the mental image is an empty useless cup.

Plan for your success and then fill it with all the feelings related to your goal as if it was already achieved.

It will help to actually carry this image with you, in your wallet, on your cell phone, wherever.
