Similar ideas to Express Feelings Appropriately
Readymade Feelings
One of the hidden dangers of technology is how your complex thoughts can be distilled and shortened into an emoji (like a heart or a thumbs up).
Most people, especially youngsters, are not being articulate with their feelings when they have readymade shortcuts to convey their emotions.
Make active-listening your priority
Deal with conflict more effectively by tackling issues head-on in an assertive, but respectful manner — all without defensiveness.
By listening empathetically to the other person, you will also create the space for taking your own thoughts and feelings into account.
Protecting Yourself with Destructive Behavior
Building walls create a safe space into which you can quickly retreat, but it also leaves you trapped behind your own emotional defenses, unable to give or receive positive emotions as well as negative ones.
This, in turn, leaves many people feeling isolated and alone.
