- When you realize that emotions are neither good nor bad you can use them as a tool
- Ask yourself questions

- I learned that I didn’t even know what I was feeling a lot of the time
- When you are unhappy you are focusing on something that you can’t change, start focusing on something you can change and you can transform your feelings
