#1. Practice the skill of categorizing

  • What - Categorizing is combining different emotion concepts to express feelings precisely. Like when leaving home to join a college in a different city. So many different emotions combine to make us feel the way we do in that moment.
  • Why - To be better able to cope with a wide range of circumstances. Plus, better understand others, negotiate conflict, & get along with people.
  • How - Practice. Just like painters learn to see fine distinctions in colors others cannot, you can practice the skill of categorizing.

People pay good money to therapists and life coaches for exactly this purpose.
