Give Me Space – Adam Factor 16, Single Men

“I’m fairly sure that my cute next door neighbor thinks I’m a stalker. She wrote it on Facebook, Twitter, and even in both of her diaries.” unknown


Personal space is personal for a reason. Aside from a brief period when a relationship first starts (remember sharing a chair, or eating off the same plate?), most people have a set space requirement that will revert to normal in time. There are however

Quotes by Marc Brackett  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Most of us are unaware of how important vocabulary is to emotion skills. As we’ve seen, using many different words implies valuable distinctions—that we’re not always simply angry but are sometimes annoyed, irritated, frustrated, disgusted, aggravated, and so on. If we can’t discern the difference, it suggests that we can’t understand it either. It’s the difference between a rich emotional life and an impoverished one. Your child will inherit the one you provide.”
Marc Brackett, Permission to Feel: The Power of Emotional Intelligence to Achieve Well-Being and Success

“Emotion regulation is not about not feeling. Neither is it exerting tight control over what we feel. And it’s not about banishing negative emotions and feeling only positive ones. Rather, emotion regulation starts with giving ourselves and others the permission to own our feelings—all of them.”
Marc Brackett, Permission to Feel: The Power of Emotional Intelligence to Achieve Well-Being and Success

“The core skill of Understanding is the search for the underlying theme or possible cause that fuels the emotion. We’re not asking questions and listening to answers just to provide a sympathetic ear. As we listen, we’re looking for a meaning that goes deeper than the words being said.”
Marc Brackett, Permission to Feel: The Power of Emotional Intelligence to Achieve Well-Being and Success

message 1: by Nancy

Nancy thanks for the friend invitation, Marc. The Secret discussion is not the first one I have participated in that has spawned crazed, rude responses with foul language. I am constantly amazed & saddened by those who have such lousy attitudes. One would hope that you could engage in a civilized discussion even if you disagree. I appreciated your attempts to steer the discussion back to "normalcy"!
