There is a time in the life of every predicament where it is ripe for resolution. Emotions provide the cue to act when a problem is big enough to see, yet still small enough to solve. By understanding your emotions, you can move adeptly through your current challenges and prevent future ones.

If you're not big enough to lose, you're not big enough to win.

My back's not big enough for the number of targets on it.

If you have a big enough dictionary, just about everything is a word.

That's what I liked about hitch-hiking. If a crowd wasn't big enough, I kept walkin.'

Negative emotions will challenge your grit every step of the way. While it's impossible not to feel your emotions, it's completely under your power to manage them effectively and to keep yourself in a position of control. When you let your emotions overtake your ability to think clearly, it's easy to lose your resolve.
