Relatively few of us are taught as children the language of our emotions or what to do with them. We often are praised for our mental toughness and abilities to power through when facing difficulties. But our emotions are God-given “indicator lights” on our psychological dashboards, letting us know what we need and providing the drive to go after it. Ignoring our emotions is like ignoring our “low fuel” light. We may be able to run for a while, but we will eventually have trouble.
