Intentional feelings

Don’t allow your feelings to be mere reactions. Make them more intentional.

Remind yourself that you can feel the way you choose to feel. Let your feelings flow from the inside out.

Engage in the externalities of life without being overwhelmed by them. Rather than having your feelings tainted by outside events, empower your positive feelings to improve those events.

When you maintain intentional control of your feelings you won’t have to fear those feelings. Seek to guide your feelings so they enhance your experience of life.

You can understand and empathize with the feelings of others without being dominated by them. You’re able to fully perceive the sentiment of each moment and still be in control of the way you feel.

Don’t let your feelings come from how you’re expected, influenced, or induced to feel. Feel the way you choose, for the reasons you choose, and proceed accordingly.
