The key problem today with fear is that we are afraid of our fear, afraid to act in the face of fear. Fear and sadness are great fields of learning. Emotions give organizations pain and cause organizational suffering. We must correctly diagnose the root cause of the pain and suffering before we suggest treatments, improvements or corrections. Emotions are the shift in your mood that you experience in response to a certain event.
Most people blame the event for the emotion via an explanation.
However, no event or outside source causes any emotion or shift in mood. It is our interpretation of that event, the meaning that we attach to the event that affects our mood or the mood of our organization. Often people and organizations oppose what is, oppose facticity. If we oppose what is we create resentment and if we create resentment we are predisposed to not being able to see possibilities. If we accept what is, facticity, endorse it, then we have the emotion of peace.
