🔹What is your understanding of emotions?

Emotions refers to how we respond to forces or situations that happens around us or that we find ourselves. Emotions can be express in different ways which includes; happiness, sadness, anger, crying, shouting and fighting etc.

🔹Have you ever had emotions that made you lose yourself? tell us about it.

If I say no to this then will probably be lying cause as human we encounter a lots of situations or circumstances that makes us lose ourselves due to our emotions at that particular moment.

I can still remember when I wanted to get myself a new phone since the old phone I used wasn't working fast and i was finding it difficult to make post due to this. So I decide to sell the old phone then add money and get myself a better phone.
I didn't know how to go about this, so I ask my brother to help me sell the phone. Little did I know I was making a big mistake 🤦
My brother came back the next day, I asked him about the money since I didn't see him with the phone. He didn't say anything, I keep asking him for 2 days and he finally say something " that he took the phone to charge it somewhere someone came and stole the phone". At this point I was feeling very angry and very mad at my brother.
What happen to the new phone I wanted to get, how will I make post in my account.
It was a very sad experience for me cause I lose it and I didn't speak with my brother for days.

🔹Do you think emotions could hinder someone from achieving their dreams?

Yes
Emotions can hinder someone from achieving their dreams that's why it's needs to be control to avoid regrets. Cause when we are angry we take decisions not having a second thought of how the outcome or results will be, sometimes this lead people into unfulfilled dreams and leaving them in regrets. People take bad actions when they are emotional and this can hinder them from achieving their goals (dreams).
