Feelings are one of our most common experiences. Therefore, we must keep in mind that feelings are "automatic value judgments." Since they are automatic judgments, it is necessary to stand back and consider feelings and determine whether they are beneficial or not, ethically sound or not. Emotional intelligence says that one must consider one's feelings before reacting. If all you do is react, you are acting as a robot. Justifying all you do because you feel a certain way is a prison.
