Jelly, don't worry. I've read everything you've typed, it was more delicate than a butterfly with sore feet landing on a dandelion.
4, glad you saw that movie. That was so good. My god it was emotional too for a pixar film. Sheesh.
But yes, I think there are many good take aways from the movie. Just gives you a better idea of how things work. To me the most important part is to be conscious that you have a team of emotions, they work FOR you, they don't run you. And that what one of them tells you when they're "in control" isn't necessarily "true" or "who you are". It's just a voice from someone on your team.
Who are you if you're not your emotions? You are the one that decides which emotions to act on, which to put in charge, which to empower, which to believe.
So agree- listen to your emotions, identify which ones they are, what they are telling you, and why. Then, like you're a manager conducting a meeting with your employees, ask if any other emotions have things to contribute, hear them out. Then, as a leader, taking into account your core beliefs, your goals, your spirituality, etc...make the decision of how you want to lead forward.
Make sense?
