NOTE

Balance Emotions Like Passengers in a Car

Feelings should not be suppressed or allowed to dominate our actions; instead, they should be acknowledged and managed. The analogy of a car illustrates that emotions can either be repressed (in the trunk) or in control (driving), neither of which is healthy. A balanced approach involves recognizing emotions while keeping them in a supportive role, akin to being safely strapped in the backseat. This awareness allows individuals to engage with their feelings without losing control. Practical application involves self-reflection on emotional presence and management, ensuring that while feelings are acknowledged, they do not take over decision-making or behavior.
