When do you know when is it time to let go? Whether it is a relationship, a career path, your house you can no longer afford, etc. When I cannot let go is when I’ve over invested in a poor “investment choice”. Looking back, the investment choices I made was all based on my emotions. It seems as if all my logic was eliminated. Then it shouldn’t come to me as a big surprise that things did not work out the way I hoped.

I like to say that I do use my heart and brain to make important life altering decisions. But when all those chemicals starts going through my brain making my heart skip a beat. Skipping a beat for something I’m so desperate to obtain. I do tend to follow my emotions, thinking I’m following my heart, when all they are just a driving force for me to make the correct choice, and not to base my choices on those emotions.

I realized that emotional intelligence is probably the major part to having a successful life. Knowing that someone else is not responsible for my feelings. People most definitely have an impact on how I feel, but I am the one to take care of how I feel at the end of the day. Those are my feelings, nobody else’s. I know myself to be a very emotional person, I learnt to accept that about me. A friend asked me today, when I talk to myself , do I say it out loud 😆 Who knows, maybe I do, I spent so much time on my own anything is possible 🙂 It’s basically just my logic self talking to my emotional self. A little confession… sometimes when I’m over emotional, at that moment I will google what to do when I’m in a certain situation. There is so much sound advice available literally at our finger tips. All it takes is a bit of discernment to follow the right advice.
