Are most of your behaviors and actions based on logic or emotions? How well do you hide your emotions if you are a logical person? How well do you stay out of trouble if you are an emotional person? Or are you a genius and just know how to control both?

I took a personality test we got handed on in psychology class. This is a test that coorporations use to find what kind of people to stick together when they are making groups for various projects so I trusted the results. It said that I am a very logical person and I would have to agree with it. I think about anything I do beforehand logically, well most of the time. If I get upset or angry at something I will speak without thinking and usually end up getting myself in trouble. However, when I get really really upset or angry I revert to being hyper logical, which is when I take whatever is said to me and find the logical flaws and point them out as a defense mechanism. I am not very good at hiding my emotions otherwise though and cry easily, lol. I can definitely not control both lol and applaud anyone who can. How about you are you logical or emotional?

hello, loveyevi, how are you? i hope that you are having some fine time doing mylot. it is true that it is hard to find somebody who is both logical and emotional. there seems to be a good amount of contradiction in this two. the logical one is not that emotional...likewise, the emotional one has to be convinced yet in order to see the logic of things.

I try to balance both out but they are both difficult to maintain. I am not such genius. Thanks for posting.

The brain controls our emotions, behavior is based on emotions. Dicipline is what keeps you out of trouble. Knowing how to act and when to act it. Its a long term process, to discipline one's emotions. A thing that is easy to master over time.

I guess I am more logical person than an emotional one. But I still feel that emotions are far more superior than the logic because logic seems limited but emotions are infinite and more flexible than logic.

most of our behaviors and habits are formed from how we were brought up by our parents/guardians from childhood. as to how we act on some matters happening, this is also molded and greatly influenced by how we had been taught and trained during our growing up years. how we act and react on occurrences may keep on being influenced by our surroundings from day to day. it may be continuously changing. the brain is something that is constantly being consulted by the person who do not wish to make rash things. at any event or circumstance, the thinker always bides his time so as not to make much error at any instance of acting, reacting and interacting. it requires no genius to be able to deal with people effectively. it just simply takes one to be smart at all times to know how best to deal with situations. they say, the smart and witty ones do best in emergency situations. these people are very far from the state of being a genius.
