And if you don't learn how to manage your emotions, they will manage you, which leads to an entanglement of thoughts, behaviors, and actions that can send you spiraling out of control.

And you wonder why you find yourself where you are.

We've been going through this "Thought Madness" in conjunction with March Madness. There are so many plot twists as to who makes it to the Sweet 16, Elite 8, and the Final Four. 

But now we know-- UConn, Alabama, Purdue, and NC State.

If you watched any of those Elite 8 games, at times, the opponent was ahead of the ones who actually moved on to the Final Four. But the difference maker in the games was their thoughts. 

Their thoughts had to get them to the other side of the points being less than and thinking they were more than.

At one point in the game between Duke and NC State, Burns (the NC State player) was seen dancing during a review. He present in what he was doing. He didn't lose control when everything seemed out of his control. He struck HIS beat and danced until the next step.

How are you regulating your emotions so you can manage your thoughts?

Because when you are facing the full-court press of overwhelming emotions, just like in basketball, you have got to slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together!

The K.I.S.S. ~ Slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together!

That means you control what you control. 

Don't let the excuses that you can't do something or change something. You control YOU!!!

So step up to the free throw line, and hit the shot!

Be deliberate. Be present. Be incredible. Be who you are becoming!

1. Awareness: Emotional regulation begins with self-awareness, acknowledging and understanding your emotions and their triggers. By recognizing how you feel, you can identify potential emotional responses.

2. Identify: Once you are aware of your emotions, you can identify whether they are helping or hindering your thoughts. This step involves labeling your emotions and understanding their impact on your thoughts and actions.

3. Evaluation: Emotional regulation requires evaluating the intensity of your emotions and deciding on an appropriate response. This involves considering the context of the situation and the potential consequences of different reactions.

4. Response: Effective emotional regulation involves choosing a response that aligns with your goals and values rather than reacting impulsively. This may involve techniques such as deep breathing, positive self-talk, or taking a moment to pause and reflect.

5. Adapt: Emotional regulation also involves adapting your responses based on feedback and outcomes. If a particular response proves ineffective, you can adjust your approach and learn from your experiences.

6. Practice: Like any skill, emotional regulation improves with practice. By consistently practicing techniques to manage your emotions, you can enhance your ability to regulate your feelings and navigate challenging situations effectively.

Overall, emotional regulation empowers you to maintain composure, make informed decisions, foster positive relationships, and cope with stress more effectively, and have thoughts that serve you well in your every day. It is a valuable tool for personal growth, resilience, and overall well-being.

Are you ready for your first slam dunk?

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
