The purpose of negative emotions is not to cause misery. It’s to prevent mistakes.
Outrage is a signal to speak. Disappointment is a cue to persist. Anxiety is a prompt to prepare. Guilt is a reminder to repair.
Pain reveals principles. Where we hurt is a clue to what we value.
From a young age, we’re conditioned to believe mistakes are bad. Each time we make one, we get a lower score. In real life, mistakes are incredibly valuable. They’re how we grow and evolve.
@SethMacFarlane The scientists are the only people we can depend on right now to be honest. Fingers crossed we’ve seen timeline going down from SARS to Zika vaccination discovery. With improved technology hope it DOES take 3 months (or less) 🤞🏻
