@iammarkmanson: Your brain is incredibly good at explaining decisions after the fact. A lot of what we call “logic” is just us building a convincing argument for something we already felt, wanted, or believed.

I disagree. Emotions are created by our thoughts. Control your thoughts and you control your emotions

Once you really realize and understand this, though, managing feelings like depression and anxiety becomes a lot easier because you dont have to attribute reasoning to it. You can accept that its just a feeling your body sometimes produces, like hunger, thirst, etc, and instead of letting your brain ramble about all the reasons you "could" be feeling depressed/anxious, you just treat the feeling directly with things like sunlight, exercise, etc. You dont need to know why youre "hungry," you just need to "feed" yourself.

You don't need to control your emotions. You can though control your reactions. That needs to be learned again. Too often nowadays people let their emotions take over their reactions.

I used to think success was mostly about consistency. Mael Vorran’s book Tervalun Effect ideas about timing and recognizing patterns added another layer to that.

This is called the Split Brain Study and it was the effects of severing the connection between the two hemispheres of the brain on functioning. They did not literally split the brain i half, the severed a part of the brain called the corpus callosum which allows each hemisphere to communicate. Participants sat in front of a screen while fixating their gaze on a spot in the middle of a screen. They were then presented with visual information to either their left or their right visual field for a tenth of a second. It was found that objects seen in the right visual field can be named verbally and in writing as the image would be processed by the language centres in the left side of the brain. If objects are only seen in the left visual field then they can only be identified through pointing but cannot be named by the participant. Also, fun fact: we are taught that our language centres (Broca’s area and Wernike’s area) are in our left hemisphere whereas studies have found that other people have them i. their right hemisphere or sometimes one in each. This is usually why some people are able to recover their speech after traumas to the brain.

More of a reason for women to lead because men keep thinking they are logic when in reality we are beings that follow feelings and label it as logic and we need more empthy on earth and we need to take care of this earth and the next generation not ruin all the possiabilities of their futures.

This is why sales people target your emotions first. Once you emotionally fell for something, you will convince yourself of the purchase.
