A gentleman once told me, "Logic will not change an emotion, but action will". For any doubters out there allow me to give you a few examples to why this is true, as I found out.
First of all, anyone who runs or exercises as a workout for physical wellness can attest to these words of wisdom. Ask anyone who works out, if they have days when they do not feel like it. However hard they try to convince themselves, it does not cause them to want to begin the rigorous activity. But once they begin the workout they find themselves in the zone with fulfillment.
Secondly, anyone who suffers with a mild case of depression, loneliness or anxiety many times they are unable to talk themselves free of these distorted thought processes. They are encouraged to go out and help someone or some organization that would be greatly appreciative of their services. Once they see value in what they are doing, they feel value in who they are.
In conclusion, all their reasoning or logic attempted in both these examples did not change how they felt. It was not until they acted on what they sought, that they got an answer to their dilemma.
