The strange paradox about learning is one retains the most information when they don’t even realize they’re engaged in an educational activity, but actually having fun!!!

The Emotional Advantage strives to entertain and enlighten with engaging interpretations and perspectives tailored to inspire a mindful self-generated bigger picture. This helps increase self-awareness, life satisfaction, and problem-solving skills. 

One of many benefits include, learning how to convert unexpected occurrences from a ripple effect distorting future outcomes into just a drop in the water pending the passage of time to regain a sense of clarity again. 

A child’s mind is a landscape ripe with creativity and brilliance!! I feel so fortunate these children share their time with me!! I learn so much from them!!

Today’s demonstrations were Distraction and Objection. Both can derive from multiple emotions and circumstances serving a variety of functions. 

Some examples from today include:

Distraction: Listening to an audio book while washing the dishes (Positive Context with Positive Target Outcome)(When applied in moderation, Distraction is a useful tool)(Function: Completing a Task) 

Objection: No sitting on a moving car to keep safe. (Negative Context with Positive Target Outcome)(Function: Survival) 

We built on concepts previously learned and applied contextual and motivational elements to our interpretations. We introduced flow charts and how to apply context to organize one’s motivation behind a thought process and target outcome. 

Everyone expressed Distraction and Objection in their own unique and constructive way. We shared ideas and perspectives within the scope and trajectory of the curriculum and built meaningful relationships! Can’t wait until next time! 

Please feel free to follow along at home and share your own progress at your own pace!!

Every artist knows the sound of their paint brush singing… A song of which only they can recognize and understand… As the rhythms and patterns generated from the internal depths of one’s soul materialize through the colors and strokes made on an external surface… 

A photographer’s angles…

A poet’s words…

An athlete’s stamina…

A researcher’s strategy…

A friend’s devotion…

A parent’s love…

All of which offer a glimpse into what matters most to some. How can one inspire another if they don’t know what motivates and matters most to them? 

Follow your passions. 

Regardless of whether one’s experience is pleasant or unpleasant… 

Emotional Intelligence can always help one invest in creating a beautiful interpretation…

For example, some view an early morning regular exercise routine as a bother, time-consuming, and overwhelming obligation. 

But, others view an early morning regular exercise routine as an opportunity similar to visiting a good friend as they become encouraged to reach their best, view a morning sky as bright as a kind and comforting smile, and always feel better about their self after spending time engaged in activity. 

Emotional Intelligence can offer an array of thoughtful landscapes to perceive any situation from. 

Hello friend…
