Emotion is defined as emotion, a strong feeling, such as joy
or anger or instinctive feeling as distinguished from reasoning or knowledge. I
do not really like Spanish, or the class. With this emotional bias/emotion
towards that class I find it harder to gain information/pay attention and
sometimes even take the work seriously. On the other hand, I love biology. The
strong emotion expressed helps me grasp any new concepts easily and studying
for biology seems like it’s a breeze.
Our emotions are more complex – with more research into this
WOK, more discoveries are being made. Like how emotions are also connected to
our brain. For example we release hormones such as adrenaline when we are
excited or extremely scared. Also dopamine is released when you feel pleasure.
This is like a reward for the brain. ‘The sweet spot’ as the brain feels more
rewarded for doing something you like, in this case me studying biology. So the
brain feels rewarded for that hence the increase in productivity.
On the other hand doing something like Spanish does not
stimulate the production of dopamine – as I have strong feeling against the
subject. This makes it extremely hard to gain knowledge and it is really hard
to study for that subject.
A quote Choose a job you love, and you will never have to
work a day in your life." – Confucius also highlights a similar idea. When
you have strong emotions of love toward your job, the work does not seem hard
or even like it is work. Thus resulting in more productivity at work and it
makes life easier. On the other hand, when you do not love your job it is very
hard for you to be productive. Every day you have very little motivation to go
to work and do your best.
Overall, it is harder to do well in something if you do not
like it. Positive emotion towards a subject/area/work makes it easier to be productive
and generally it is easier to succeed. While having negative emotions towards a
subject/area/work makes it very hard to be productive and it is harder to succeed
in my opinion.
