"Nuestras emociones tienen una mente propia, una que puede tener opiniones bastante independientemente de nuestra mente racional."
— Daniel Goleman

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes our feelings act on their own, separate from our logical thinking. For example, you might get really angry about something minor, even if you know it's not a big deal. Your head tells you to stay calm, but your heart doesn’t listen. This happens because emotions and logic are like two different parts of us. They don't always agree. Understanding this can help you recognize when your emotions are taking over, and it might be easier to control them. Next time you feel upset or overly excited, try to pause and check if your feelings match the facts. This way, you can make better decisions.
