Awareness of your emotions is the first step towards developing or enhancing emotional intelligence. Answering the questions below will help you to become more aware of your emotions by identifying people or situations which cause you to feel certain emotions. (Adapted from Gamble & Gamble, 1998, p. 242)
List three emotions you recall having experienced more than once in the last month. (Examples might be: boredom, excitement, fear, delight, anger, embarrassment, love, shame, envy, pride, anxiety, jealousy – or add others.)
Think about the situations you were in when you experienced these emotions, and see if you can pinpoint causative factors in each case. Describe any similarities or differences, and whether the emotions enhanced the event or detracted from it.
Complete the following sentences:
I am happy when _______________________________________________
I am anxious when _____________________________________________
I am frustrated when ____________________________________________
I am confident when ____________________________________________
I am excited when ______________________________________________
