SACRED ALGEBRA 🤲📿🤲

DESPAIR =  SUFFERING - MEANING

Picture

Despair = Suffering (minus) Meaning  
Increase purpose in your life ,  reduce despair.  
Change your attitude , see things differently , suffer less , reduce despair. 

FOR SELF-EVOLVING MATHS BUFFS ,  SOME MORE  EMOTIONAL EQUATIONS

CUROSITY = WONDER + AWE 😲
ANXIETY =  UNCERTAINTY  X POWERLESSNESS 😖
OPTIMISM  =  JOY + ANTICIPATION
🙌😄 HAPPINESS =      WANTING WHAT YOU HAVE        =        GRATITUDE
                                            HAVING WHAT YOU WANT            GRATIFICATION


HAVE A GO & CREATE YOUR OWN EQUATIONS ! HERE ARE SOME OF MINE ..  ​
Serenity  =  Detachment +  Non Judgement
Love =  ( Service  x  Kindness )  +  Forgiveness 
Contentment  = Gratitude (2)  


​
  • How CEOs are not just CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, but CHIEF EMOTIONS OFFICERS . 
  • How leaders of units ( organizations , families ) are EMOTIONAL THERMOSTATS , setting the tonality for sentiment .   Feelings are contagious !  Labelling and identifying what you are feeling is the first step towards dealing with them.  Be honest!  Do not self-sabotage with a false sense of Pride or Perfectionism.  
  • How the success of people within the organization can be attributed two-thirds to their Emotional Intelligence and only one-third to pure IQ,   academics, or experience!   
  • How you don’t need to be SUPERHUMAN, just A SUPER  HUMAN, which we all can strive to be.
  • How you can deal with FOGO ( Fear of Growing Old)  wisdomwell.modernelderacademy.com/curing-fogo
