Negative Effects
I chose to do my topic on negative effects on emotion because it has sometimes affected my decision making at some points in my life. I believe that it is best to make an important decision when your mind isn't clouded with negative thoughts. I know an example is when taking a test. Sometimes I know the answer to a question, but I blank out because I'm so nervous that I might get it wrong, and I know my parents would be upset if I ended up failing. I end up getting scared and forgetting alot of things during the test. These emotions can also be a blast from our past. We know the effects of failing and we don't what it to happen again. This could cloud our judgement in many things in life, one may think "oh this seems like a great idea to do," but then they might start freaking out because others may not like their idea because they might have confidence issues that trace back to their childhood. They may be scared to express their opinion because they fear people might think their idea is dumb or stupid.

I feel the same way when I am taking a test. You study for days for an exam, and then blank out the moment you read the first question. Our parents put pressure on us to do well in school, but that just adds to the stress of everything in our life. I try to not focus on the negative side of things and stay positive. Even though we can’t always avoid these feelings, we should not let it affect our lives. Past experiences will stick with us in our memories, but we should not allow it to consume us and stop us from moving onwards towards our future.
