Feelings Precede thoughts
Instead of following my thoughts I have started noticing my feelings … My thoughts maybe positive or negative, My feelings will be neural and directly based on the present environment....If my environment is hostile, my feelings feel negative and that directly affects my thought and vice versa.
Feeling are my sixth sense. I realize my feelings are immediately followed by my thoughts…My feelings are the present, the way i feel at this moment…whereas my thoughts are either in my past or my future or about someone or something, where feelings is how I feel about something. Feeling is when I am a first party whereas thoughts are when I am the third party…
If i dwell on my feelings I will be able to prioritize myself as much as I prioritize others,especially for a social worker like me, who used to keep 'others' on priority than myself, By listening to my feelings I started keeping myself at par with 'others'.
If we can think and create, we can also feel and create , If thinking is for a third party, I would rather feel ad create for myself. Wont it automatically make my day better? and If i feel better won't I be able to give more back to the society ? is this a win-win solution?
If i dont get a closure to my past moment, the feeling will continue to the present moment and spoil it. All I need to do is start afresh moment by moment and make sure my feelings are balanced and neutral. If my feelings are balanced my day is balanced as I am not follwing my thoughts and creating blocks for myself.
