Foundation based on emotion Some build their lives on a feeling. If it feels right, they do it. But feelings lie — they lie all the time! You lie to yourself more than anyone else. If you live by your feelings, you’ll spend your life manipulated by your moods .  Feelings is not enough to build your goals on, because feelings do change, feelings changes with mood, if you are happy, you will feel spirited, you can climb to the pinnacle of the highest mountain in the world at that moment.
