The principle of Emotional Economics simply asserts that we can treat our emotions like a budgetable resource. John reveals his personal story that gave rise to this thinking that allows for increased emotional freedom. Whether or not we fully realize just how valuable our emotional energy is, doesn’t change the fact that we can harness it, waste it or even over spend it. Knowing when to do which is what gives us an advantage or puts us at a disadvantage in any given situation. In this episode, learn the innovative principles of how to invest your emotional energy in people and causes that are worthwhile. Conserve it when adverse situations seem to demand it, especially when it involves people that have less than our best interests at heart. Harsh situations can easily drain us of our strength, our focus and our will. But that does not mean that we should resist their internal impact on us, so long as we manage how we allow those emotions to surface when we face the world. It’s actually the fighting of our emotions that creates all internal conflict and wears us down. These deeply rooted impacts can even cause real physical illnesses to manifest. Stress is a byproduct of our inability to manage or “budget” our emotion. We need to be able to deliberately allocate it as we see fit to best suit our life design. In this way we must also be mindful that there is an account that we must service in all relationships. This means that we should not be attempting to make emotional withdrawals (asking of favors) before we have made significant deposits (established goodwill). In doing this, you will also waste less emotional energy on people and situations that simply do not warrant it and then double down on those you hold dear and truly become emotionally rich!
