The Small Business tips today discuss managing emotions when dealing with other people.
- Emotion= Energy in MOTION. You are expressing outwardly what you are feeling. Once you start, it is hard to stop.

a step back from a potentially emotionally charged situation. Gather
your thoughts, take a deep breath, and decide how to proceed with the
situation.

to let out how you are feeling emotionally, and to gather your
thoughts. It also helps to keep your emotions in check.

those friends and family members that you trust. When you can confide
in someone and discuss your true feelings, it helps to express your
feelings in a safe way.
