Quote by Mark Goulston
Being alone with fear can rapidly turn into panic. Being alone with frustration can rapidly turn into anger. Being alone with disappointment can rapid turn into discouragement and, even worse, despair.
Summary
This quote highlights the powerful emotional transition that can occur when negative emotions are left unaddressed and unexpressed. When we are alone with fear, it can quickly escalate into panic due to our mind's tendency to amplify and magnify negative thoughts. Similarly, frustrations left unattended can transform into anger, as the energy builds up without an outlet. Disappointment, when not dealt with, can swiftly lead to discouragement, and in more extreme cases, despair. It emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and seeking support for these emotions to prevent them from intensifying and negatively impacting our mental well-being.
