Focus on the resulting feeling
We need to understand how any particular emotion (root cause) will translate into a feeling (symptom).
The six emotions are broad categories, while the feelings are specific to describe what is going on in our bodies. For instance, disgust (emotion) may result in 'loathing' or 'detestable' feelings.
When you have to make a decision, always track your feeling to the resulting emotion to find the root cause.
