Emotion and decision-making in an age of unpredictable changes

Abstract

The word Emotion comes from the Latin word e=ex=out and mov ere=motion. So, literally it means to move out. To move out or to act, we have to make a decision. Thus, Emotion is closely related to decision making. Yesterday, the changes were small so we could easily make predictions. Therefore, we did not need to make decisions or even we had to, they were not too much critical. But today changes are frequent and extensive. And what makes the situation difficult is they are unpredictable. Therefore, we need another approach to make decisions with more flexibility and faster adaptability. This paper discusses the issue of awareness or perception and recognition of a problem, which precede a decision or to problem solving and proposes a versatile approach to defining a problem.
