The biggest enemy of human brain; Anger. It numbs your brain cells, misguides your mouth, and your body gets out of your control. These are the specialities of an angry human. Anger is hard to control, is hard to be ignored and damages the body. Anger can change the scenario of anything, whether it’s the professional meeting or public meeting.

Anger is difficult to control, although reducing the frequency of anger benefits our body along with the brain. The biggest cause of anger is negativity, which never yields any results. It numbs your brain to think of the peaceful solution, instead anger engages your brain in useless arguing and body language. So, if you want to be a good professional, you should switch to your positive side, ignore the negativity, which will eventually stop anger and your brain will remain healthy!

3) Stress

For a professional, this emotions is his best friend. Every day thousands of people suffer from job stress, whether it is due to closing deadlines, high responsibilities and work load, or related to the family expensed. Every man on earth encounters stress uncountable times in his life. Stress is always considered as negative, but it’s not always the case.

Stress is of two types, positive and negative. Positive stress occurs for a short period of time. It is termed positive because it yields positive results. It has its roots from the human brain, when our subconscious procrastinates or tries to ignore the task, stress is like a kick and forces brain to think about the options to solve the situation. Short term stress stops delay and helps our mind to get results during extreme times e.g. in examinations.

While short term stress kicks our brain to accomplishment, long term stress or negative stress leads to destruction. It initiates with the work stress at the office, where the deadlines are close, peer pressure is at its peak, and the job is at stake.

The positive stress stops after the accomplishment of results, but negative stress never stops, it spreads like a virus in the body. Even if we achieve the goals or not, our brain gets so much habitual to short term stress, that this creeps in our personal life too. Slowly our brain undergoes stress at normal situations and it increases day by day, affecting our body internally as well as externally with age, like high blood pressure, swollen eyes and chronic diseases.

This effect of stress in personal as well as professional life, leads to negative stress. So, if you want to be emotionally smart, don’t adopt stress in your life for long term, instead try to solve the problems with least stress as possible, because stress has its own effects.

4) Depression

Human brain is vulnerable to numerous emotional effects, and the biggest effect to brain is through depression. Although emotions express out heart’s feelings, but it effects brain too, and the most negative effect to brain is done by depression.

The main cause of depression is “Fear”, and many people feel depressed only due to one factor: unable to deliver the desired result. Whether it’s the undesirable examination result for a student, or unfinished projects for professionals, depression consumes every human brain.

Fear plays a big role in depression, fear is of two kinds; short term and long term. Short term fears exist only due to horrors or surprises, whether it’s due to the horror movie or a drunken driver! But short term fears have little effect on us, although the long term fear results into depression.

Let’s take an example, the project deadline has passed and you still have got some files to complete for it. Now the human brain can take two choices, either take the short term stress path, and complete it as soon as possible to get rid of the stress, Or the fear path, where your brain is constantly haunted by the feeling of failure. You can’t ignore the feeling of fear because your subconscious brings all types of fear to you, like “what if I lose my job? What if I get a transfer, what will happen to my reputation in the office?” even fears like “how can I afford to pay for the car instalments?” and many other irrelevant fears erupt like a volcano in your brain.

These all are the garbage fears that our subconscious feels, we know that these feelings aren’t true and we can solve all of these problems just by completing the project, but due to these fears our brain starts to give up and we find ourselves trapped in the whirlpool of fear, leading to depression. Many people voluntarily give up because they are afraid of the fears, they are afraid of failing or accepting the mistakes, and that’s why depression eats them from inside.

Don’t let depression consume your efficiency, the only way to avoid depression is positivity, there will be no fears if we think positively and solve everything with a positive mind. Nothing is impossible, you can achieve whatever you need, you just need to work harder and leave the results to GOD, and eradicate depression by eliminating fear from your subconscious.

5) Sentiments

Every human has a soft corner in his heart and mind for those whom he cares the most or admires them. For most of us they’re “ parents, wife, kids, relatives, friends, colleagues and especially a celebrity that we admire the most.” These all are the part of another element of emotions called sentiments.

Sentiments are easy to express, but can be dangerous if provoked intentionally. Many fights, arguments, violence are merely the cause of provoking the soft buttons of the human heart, which are sentiments. When we’ve sentiments for someone, we always try to make them happy, whether it’s a new toy for kids, jewellery for wife, or throwing a party with friends, sentiments help us to express our love for them. And if you want complete emotional smartness, you’ve to know the worth of sentiments.

Many people ignore its value, but only sentiments are the key to motivation. If you’re under work and deadline stress, take out the sentiments for your closest ones, and surely this feeling ignites you to work harder. So if you want a better lifestyle, know the power of sentiments, because they can change the way you take care of your loved ones.
