Here are some amazing nuggets of wisdom from Dr. Susan David:

When we push aside normal emotions to embrace false positivity, we lose our capacity to develop skills to deal with the world as it is, not as we wish it to be.
When we label our emotions more accurately, we are more able to discern the precise cause of our feelings.
Emotions are data, not directives—we can show up to and mine our emotions for their values without needing to listen to them.
We own our emotions, they do not own us.
When you feel a strong, tough emotion, don’t run to the emotional exits.
Emotional agility is the ability to be with your emotions with curiosity, compassion, and courage.
