People act more on emotion, less on reason?

Question

Agree or disagree?

Answer 1

agree.....emotion is a very powerful part of oneself......it is indeed very difficult for one to overcome it.......only with the help of the element of perseverance and determination together with a splash of wisdom,then only one could be able to fight it.....but then,most of the time our emotions tend to be in control of ourselves......why? because reason itself is usually overwhelmed by the emotion.....one of the reason is maybe because emotion comes from within oneself,while reason comes from knowledge & experiences....even still,it is a very subjective matter to be talked about,yet interesting.......i leave the rest to you.....

Answer 2

I don't agree with it.  I think less people do it.

Answer 3

Depends on the person. Some people are 'thinkers' and some are 'feelers', according to the MBTI [Myers-Briggs Typology Indicator].  'Feelers' would probably tend to act more on emotion, and 'thinkers' would probably act more on reason.  However, I think that most people are at least slightly affected by emotion.

Answer 4

it all really depends on the situation.  

i generally agree with this statement though.  when u have such a strong emotion for something or somebody, our bodies just have a way of making us follow our hearts.  i think thats just how it works.  i also think it depends on what kind of person you are.  but at the edn of the day emtion rules a lot of people.

Answer 7
