What is emotional distortion?

What causes you or another to distort perspective?

The emotion responsible for misrepresenting another individual, reading his efforts in ways that are insincere or untrue. 

 

Politically opposing camps deliberately power themselves on this emotion to misread the policy, initiative or ideology of their opposition.  When this emotion colors an individual’s relationship with his or her supervisor, the situation suffers greatly, with a tremendous amount of irritability and conflict erupting between the two. Once aware that this emotion is gaining the upper hand, it would be advisable to generate a great amount of distance, and space within oneself to restrain the fever pitch working of this emotion. 

 

If unchecked, the energy released by distortion effects, would result in a disruptive pattern of decisions and speech patterns, that you will most likely regret.
