Quando criança, Marc Brackett era um menino assustado, tímido e tomado por uma raiva silenciosa. Tudo mudou quando um tio foi capaz de reconhecer seu sofrimento e perguntar: O que você está sentindo? Com essa simples pergunta, pela primeira vez, o pequeno Marc compreendeu que não era “errado” se sentir daquele jeito. Nas décadas seguintes, ele se dedicou a investigar as raízes do bem-estar emocional e, a partir daí, criou um sistema para nos ajudar a reconhecer, compreender, rotular, expressar e regular nossas emoções, sejam elas positivas ou negativas.

How can we apply technology to drive business value?

This book presents both the findings and the science behind that research, making the information accessible for listeners to apply in their own organizations.

The dark side of our personality - the “other,” the shadow side - is made up of what we think is our primitive, primal, negative impulses - our “existential kink.” Our existential kink also drives the dark or negative repeating patterns in our life: always choosing the abusive partner or boss, settling for less, thinking that we’re undeserving, not worthy. But it also is the source of our greatest power.

Quando se trata de emoções, é comum sentir culpa ou criar expectativas impossíveis de alcançar.
