Self awareness|assignment number 7|11-01-2026

🤷🤷 Emotional intelligence🤦🤦

Q1. Recent unnoticed strong emotion & its impact?🏃🏃🏃🏃

Recently, I felt frustration during a conversation, but at that moment I thought I was just “busy” or “tired.” I didn’t realize the emotion clearly until later. Because I wasn’t aware of it, my tone became short and slightly rude, and I avoided explaining myself properly. This frustration silently controlled my behavior and created unnecessary distance. If I had noticed the emotion early, I could have paused, communicated calmly, and avoided misunderstanding.

Q2. Personal emotional signal & example

One personal signal that tells me an emotion is building up is physical tension, especially in my shoulders and jaw, along with faster breathing.?🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴

There was a time when I noticed this signal early, and I chose to stay quiet and reflect before responding, which helped prevent conflict. However, there have also been moments when I ignored this signal, and my emotions later burst out in the form of impatience or harsh words. This taught me that the body often warns us before the mind understands.

Q3. Reaction influenced by an unknown underlying feeling?🦸🦸🦸🦹

I once reacted defensively in a situation where someone gave me feedback. At that time, I thought I was protecting my point of view, but later I realized the real feeling was insecurity and fear of being judged. If I had noticed this underlying cause earlier, I could have listened with an open mind, asked questions, and used the feedback for growth instead of turning it into conflict.

Q4. Repeating emotional habit & role of self-awareness?👳👳🧕🧕🧕👳👳

One emotional habit I repeat is reacting immediately without reflection, especially when emotions are intense. Practicing self-awareness can help me pause, name the emotion, and understand why it is appearing. With awareness, I can choose a thoughtful response instead of an automatic reaction. Over time, this can help me replace impulsive behavior with calm, intentional actions.

🌺🌺🌺🌺 Short Reflection Summary🌺🥀🥀🌺

Self-awareness is the foundation of emotional intelligence. When I notice emotions early, understand their cause, and recognize my personal signals, I gain the power to respond wisely instead of reacting blindly. Awareness truly comes before control
