Emotions That Drive Your Train of Thought - Donna Kunde

Introduction
“We cannot really think in one way and act in another” Thomas Troward

“What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” Henry David Thoreau

“Same thoughts always lead to the same choices, same choices lead to the same behavior, and the same behaviors lead to the same experiences and the same experiences produce the same emotions and these emotions drive the very same thoughts.” Dr. Joe Dispenza

Why do an episode on emotions? Take a closer look at the word. E - Motion. The “E” puts us into motion. What does the “E” stand for? Energy. Everything is energy. Our thoughts, our things, everything is energy. So emotions are energy in motion. What type of motion? That depends on what energy our thoughts produce. 

I encourage you to listen to this series with an open mind and be willing to receive new ideas. Then continue the conversation in a special group I have created just for you in our IBGR Entrepreneurs' Community Network  called The Business Owner's Bookshelf where I have put downloadable copies of two of the books we will be exploring. The easiest way to listen and engage is inside the IBGR app for Android or iOS. See you on the inside...

Objectives - The WHY
Emotional Intelligence is a huge buzzword these days. Our emotions are energy in motion and are the driving train that leads us into action. The emotionally intelligent person is skilled in four areas: identifying emotions, using emotions, understanding emotions and regulating emotions. 


Key Issues - Owner Perspective:

1. The subconscious or emotional mind does not remain idle. If we do not intentionally plant our desires, goals and dreams into our subconscious mind, it will feed on thoughts that reach it as a result of our neglect.
2. In every instance, we have a choice to engage in the flow of negative thoughts, or voluntarily influence our subconscious mind through positive thoughts. Both exist at the same time.
3. Deciding to change the flow of negative thoughts is the HARDEST, easy thing you will probably ever do. 

What You Need to Know - The WHAT

• Emotions are defined as instinctive or intuitive feelings. In other words, they can only be felt. Emotions are not conscious but instead manifest in the unconscious mind. 
• Feelings include both emotional experiences and physical sensations, like hunger or pain and are conscious experiences. 
• In the book Think and Grow Rich, Hill says there are seven major POSITIVE Emotions: Desire, Faith, Love, Sex, Enthusiasm, Romance and Hope
• Hill also lists seven major NEGATIVE Emotions: Fear, Jealousy, Hatred Revenge, Greed, Superstition, and Anger
• Positive and negative emotions cannot occupy the mind at the same time. 
• We are all effectively hypnotized by the thoughts and ideas we have uncritically accepted from others or have repeated in our own mind long enough to believe they are true. 
• You are fully resourced in all ways and at all times. Through awareness of your thoughts, you have the ability and the power to do whatever you need to do to be successful. It starts with your emotions.

What You Need to Do​​ - The HOW

1. Form the habit of applying and using positive emotions. 
2. Start a practice of visualization, meditation or prayer before you are filled with negative emotions. 
3. Make your positive emotions work for you. The subconscious mind is easier to influence when  thoughts are mixed with “feeling” or emotion rather than just logic and reasoning. 
4. Actively engage in shutting off the flow of negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts and impulses that bolster your desired outcome.
