Many of us remember that old song "Feelings". The chorus line goes something like this .... "Feelings, wo-o-o feelings, Wo-o-o feelings". It's easy to go off the edge because of our feelings, isn't it? However, if we fail to keep them in a structured perspective, they will run us and they can even have the potential to do some serious damage on the inside. We all have them ... but we must make sure they don't have us. Feelings have the potential to ruin relationships, end marriages, destroy trust and even cause us to question our motives, even when our motives are good..
There is a huge potential to make bad decisions when feelings are in the drivers seat. Feelings are fickle and many times than not, they aren't very stable either. I can remember times when I've made decisions based upon my feelings and was met with absolute failure, chaos and frustration. The reason we should never base major decisions off of our feelings, is due to the fact that our feelings can deceive us and turn us in the wrong direction. At times, feelings can even cause us to not see things with clarity because our vision has been skewed..
Base major decisions on reality and fact, not feelings.
Until next time,
Coach Tracy
