The flow of thoughts is your mind uncensored.
It is your feelings unfiltered.

It is your feelings before you overanalyze and alter your opinion for approval.
It is your vulnerability.

Emotion
Emotion is clearly an extremely broad subject in Psychology.
Emotion is analyzed by various theories including physiological arousal, psychological appraisal, and subjective experiences.
The James Lang theory focuses on physiological arousal.
This theory has to do with the sympathetic nervous system- the fight or flight response.
It can be a bodily response that can threaten your environment- i.e.
your heart racing in an extremely nerve-racking situation.
The James Lang Theory states that you would only feel fear or nervousness after the physiological arousal has occurred.
Cognitive appraisal theory believes thinking must happen first before emotion can develop.
Subjective experience of emotion involves the feeling of adaption.
This is based on the primary Theory of Evolution introduced by Charles Darwin.
Each feeling or experience can lead to action.
The feeling of fear can cause one to fight.
The feeling of love can lead to reproduction.
This theory implies the simplicity of 1 plus 1 can equal 2.
You feel something and you act on it.
Now we all now in this time in modern-day dating nobody acts this way anymore.
Now everything is a game.
Yes means maybe and no can really mean yes.
Maybe we can learn something by taking a page from our history books.
In the time of survival of the fittest, there was no time for emotional mind games.
All and all to be completely honest the more research I find on emotion.
The more confused I am about it myself.
What to really take from this, is emotion can be explained in a million different ways.
I believe the healthiest way to deal with your emotions is to act on them honestly.
Now we are not living in the stone ages there is a time and place for everything.
However, if you are not confronting your emotions you are denying them.
This behavior can lead to bottled up repressive feelings that may never get resolved.
One day this bottle will break and I promise you, that you will regret not speaking up sooner.
Habit
Habit is described as behavior or routine.
Habit can happen subconsciously more so rather than less.
Habits can become automatic and as the saying goes old habits are hard to break.
Yet it is possible to form new habitual actions.
Habits can be analyzed through formation, goals, nervousness, and intention.
Formation is the process that makes an action a regular habit.
This formation occurs with regular behavior and soon enough these actions become in sync.
Formation can start slow on average it can take 66 times for something to become automatic to you.
The timeline varies anywhere from 18 to 254 times.
As we all know everyone works at their own pace.
Habit forming can involve 3 parts; cue, behavior, and reward.
Cue is the subject or the reason the habit evolved in the first place.
The behavior is the work and action needed to lead to your reward, i.e.
a habit for studying could be rewarding yourself with a 30 minute Netflix break.
Or a job well done can be celebrated with buying a new sweater.
This reward high reinforces thebecause I am worth itfactor.
The goals factor has a lot to do with memory and past experiences.
Goals usually occur successfully when the habit is repeated regularly and for a long duration.
Most successful habits are not created overnight.
There needs to be some form of commitment.
Obviously, there are many things that many people are just naturally good at firsthand.
However, everything can be polished to perfection.
That is the difference between good and greatness.
Nervousness is represented by an emotional reaction.
It is a bad habit that signifies your emotion at that given time.
Habits represent the action of earning and the power of achievement.
Habits help you understand yourself better by being aware of your routine.
If you are aware of your habits then you’re able to have the power to change them.
Life is all about trial and error.
