The analysis of one's own emotions. Or: What is really important to me?

In which situations is knowledge about one's own emotional structure (motives, values, talents) helpful?

• If you want to understand and/or change your communication behavior, • if you want to know which emotions are dominant in you and thus sometimes beneficial and sometimes hindering in everyday life,
• if you want to know why you always fall into the same (decision-making) traps,
• if you want to know which job contents/positions are attractive to you,
• if you want to know what emotional sense/purpose is in you,
• if you want to know how your partner "ticks",
• if you want to know how your team "ticks",
• if you want to know why there is friction in the team,
• if you want to know how to motivate your employees,
• if you want to know if a candidate fits into the team,
• if you want to know how to initiate self-reflection in people as a trainer, coach or HR professional,
• and, and, and…: Whenever emotions (motives, values, talents) are involved in decision-making.
• Are you curious about yourself and would you like to have a paid analysis of your motives, values and talents?

What is the meaning and justification for me to analyze my motives, values and talents?

Self-perception and personal identity are closely linked. The way we perceive ourselves influences our personal identity and vice versa.

Overall, self-perception is an important factor in the formation and development of our personal identity. Our beliefs about ourselves and our abilities and skills influence who we are and who we aspire to be. At the same time, our identity can also influence our self-perception, as we identify with certain characteristics such as motives, values, and talents based on our identity.

Do the analysis results put me in a "box"?

Clearly: NO!

Self-evaluation and external evaluation refer to the assessment of characteristics, behaviors, or achievements of a person - either by the person themselves (self-evaluation) or by another person (external evaluation).

Self-assessment refers to a person's own assessment of themselves.

The analysis of your 26 motives, 40 values, and 8 talents aims to help you better and more accurately understand yourself. At the end of the analysis, you will receive your results without any evaluations of your person!

Only you can voluntarily change yourself in the analysis of your 26 motives, 40 values, and 8 talents. Various questions about different situations are offered as an aid.

What is the difference between decision and logic?

A decision refers to a choice made to choose between two or more options. It is a process in which a person chooses a specific action or option that they believe to be the best. Decisions can be based on various factors, such as personal beliefs, experiences, emotions, or available information to be evaluated. Decisions are individual beliefs that can be shared by other people but cannot be verified for correctness.

Logic, on the other hand, refers to rational thinking and the ability to draw conclusions based on arguments and evidence. It is a system of rule-based thinking based on principles of analytical reasoning and verifiability to arrive at logical conclusions. Logical actions can be checked for correctness by other people.

How do neuroscientists recognize and describe decision-making in the brain?

Neuroscientists use various techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electroencephalography (EEG), and magnetoencephalography (MEG) to measure brain activity during decision-making. These techniques help to investigate the neural basis of decision-making and understand which brain regions and neural processes are involved in decision-making.

Various emotions such as motives, values, and talents are involved in decision-making:

The 26 motives are internal drives that can influence our behavior. In decision-making, motives such as the desire for achievement, need for security, social recognition, and autonomy can play a role.

The 40 values represent beliefs and attitudes that can influence our behavior. In decision-making, values such as justice, solidarity, freedom, and self-determination can play a role.

The 8 talents are abilities that we possess and that can influence our behavior. In decision-making, talents such as creativity, analytical thinking, emotional intelligence, musicality, or communication can play a role.

Why do you only choose something that is good for you? (Prof. Dr. Holger Schulze, neuroscientist:)

"Regardless of how all these conscious and unconscious evaluations turn out, in the end no decision is made without there being an emotional "OK" for it: After all, everyone has to be able to live with their own decisions personally, and that can only be done if they are at peace with themselves, their beliefs, feelings, and these decisions.

This emotional OK consists of the fact that the actions that are to be taken as a result of a decision must be unlocked again by the limbic system. This is therefore the instance that can exercise the veto right. If this OK does not come, even a fully planned action will not be executed."

Conclusion: Our decisions must trigger a "psychobiological well-being" in us.
