Many would agree that several techniques were also formulated and developed to teach people on how to deal with them.

However, no matter how much we try to assess these emotions, a lot of people seem to always reach a dead end in their search. Most of the time, we are just like running around in circles that when we think that we are progressing with them only to find out that we are again back in square one. What we all seem to lack in this aspect is the emotional intelligence.


If we do a search on the internet on what emotions are, we would probably find that it basically means "energy in motion." But even if we have this meaning, do we really know what it means? There are several emotions that we can actually enumerate but these were classified according to the six basic emotions. These six are joy, peace, love, anger, sadness and fear but the real question is how do we associate these six with the meaning of emotion?
