Many individuals in this world may unashamedly think or feel that if their lives ended naturally or catastrophically, the persons in their world would be okay. Contrastingly, other persons may deem their loved ones to experience mental devastation or self-condemnation. They may also assume their loved ones will adopt an indifferent mental temperament.
We can never be too sure about how our loved ones feel if we naturally or suddenly transition into another dimension, meaning we can only assume. Similarly, if our loved ones suddenly become the dearly departed, we cannot factually predict how we would feel. Most people in life have never experienced loss. Many will go through life never knowing what it feels like to lose someone, let alone grieve.
Whether it is your loss or theirs, it is unquestionable that we as humans will experience mental and emotional turmoil. Even when faced with emotional adversities, one thing losers must do is effortfully engage in trying to stay physically, psychologically, and spiritually erect.
Loss does not always mean losing yourself emotionally.
To take on this position and fight the battle of loss, you must first believe you have the power to stay upright. You must first believe you control the situation and no one else. You have been given superior humanistic powers. These unique psychological endowments require minimal manual labor and will not result in significant brain mass depletion, only pools of tears.
To understand these powers, you must first understand yourself and your emotional intelligence, emotional quotient, or EQ. Your EQ is based on your ability to understand, process, and manage your emotions on your own and positively. Being emotionally intelligent means you will wittingly defuse the emotional troubles or inconveniences and be self- and socially aware. You will also avoid situations that trigger negative thoughts and emotions. Knowing your EQ and applying such emotional intelligence to your life will be advantageous to you and your abilities to effectively and efficaciously process your thoughts and feelings in multifarious situations, even loss. Having a low EQ means you will face extreme difficulties with being able to control your emotions and will forever experience mental and emotional upheaval and distress.
While you may never know how others will feel once you are gone, there is no way to prepare definitively. However, as humans, you must at least take the initiative to boost your emotional intelligence and cognitive functioning, especially as negative emotions will consume your thoughts and try to get the best of you.
If you don’t do anything else, you are the only person who can manage your emotions. Boost your EQ not for the sake of pleasing others but for your personal gain.
– it will only lead to you being or becoming a better you.
