Lesson 27 – Your Emotional Coefficient
“Its quietness was the quietness of strength. And the eyes were those of one who had walked through many a dark valley without flinching.”
PETER O’DONNELL
How To Identify Your Emotional Coefficient
The Emotional Coefficient measurement identifies your “level of performance”. This two-digit number measurement should be at one-tenth of the Mental Potential measurement for perfect correlation. In the case of 99% of humanity, individuals are not adequately correlated, and there is a vast disparity between their potential and their actual expressions or actions. They simply are not performing at the level indicated by their potential.
It is at this emotional level that everyone has trouble with. Since practically no one has an emotional level as high as it should be, almost everyone is short of the emotional energy that makes it possible for them to live their lives how they would like.
Your Emotional Strength number not only identifies your level of operating performance but also the quality of emotional energy you exert through your awareness. This measurement also provides insight into how your emotional level may distort your perceptions of reality.
To explain the effect of a low Emotional Coefficient, I can use the analogy of a light bulb. Within a light bulb in which one wire was loose, the light might be dim, flicker, or otherwise fail to emit the steady amount of light it was capable of. Another illustration would be to compare the expression of an unbalanced person to the light from a three-way bulb, which, while having the potential for radiating bright light, may only be radiating light at an intermediate level. So it is for a person who doesn’t have their position on the scale co-ordinated properly with their emotional strength. They genuinely seem to know they are not expressing themselves as they should and are incurring many problems.
There are certain patterns of performance based upon the specific Emotional Strength levels. I will describe some of the basic patterns found for people at every level of emotional strength. In all brackets, with each higher number, there is an increase in the capacity, strength, or ability to express within that bracket.
SOME EFFECTS OF A LOW EMOTIONAL LEVEL
Several principles apply to everyone with an Emotional Coefficient that is lower than it should be.
Regardless of your position on the Scale Of Consciousness, an inability to fully use your potential capacity can cause frustration. At some level in your consciousness, there is an awareness that you are not performing as you sense you could. This sense of frustration may be strong, except that your mind can constantly divert your attention toward other ideas as if you don’t want to catch on to the fact that you are not living at your actual performance. You may feel scattered and restless and feel something is missing from your life. In some cases, the frustration may be powerful enough to cause such tremendous stress that you eventually get physically sick. Note that neurosis can develop if you are working below your proper Emotional Strength level and out of sync with your level on the Scale Of Conciseness.
An important point to remember is that this applies when the Emotional Strength level is below 30.0, and the Scale Of Consciousness position is above where it should be. For such people, this causes a considerable degree of dissatisfaction because, at some base level, they KNOW they should be living in a mind-oriented state of consciousness rather than the emotional state that regularly distorts their expressions. Their awareness of facts and overall understanding of the world also disturbs their awareness of facts.
People feel inadequate in many activities, interpret events emotionally, see things out of sync with reality, and hesitate. The higher their position on the Scale Of Consciousness, the more they sense these factors and feel inadequate.
Note that at every numerical position on the Scale Of Consciousness, there is the possibility of finding and fulfilling your life’s purpose. Nevertheless, someone with low emotional strength in their position on the Scale of Consciousness seems to never really be content with life. The receiving set in the person’s mind continuously tunes in to the wrong things caused by their emotional limitations.
Static enters their consciousness through ideas or attitudes toward life. To a great degree, these ideas and perspectives are the same. Everyone has the same Emotional Strength level. How one reacts to this daily is usually tempered by their position on the Scale of Consciousness. Some people try to ignore the broad level of static they are receiving, while others try to transmute such reactions (this can get exhausting). Still others with higher Scale Of Consciousness numerical levels seek to control them since they know that there is an insufficient basis in reality for letting their emotional reactions get the best of them.
With a low Emotional Strength level, an individual repeats and reinforces emotional patterns built into their “emotional-oriented” mind since childhood. The result is that they will always have specific habit patterns established in their “emotional-oriented” mind nature that repeat the same mistakes repeatedly. Often, these will be negative responses to the events of life.
While people with a low Emotional Coefficient may believe that their conscious mind controls their interpretations, perceptions, and reactions, they are governed as much as 90% of the time by these strengthened habits or behavior patterns of the “emotional-oriented” mind.
The influence of the “emotional-oriented” mind on the conscious mind may make it difficult for the conscious mind to be receptive to the Higher Mind. This influence can be such that the conscious mind may be stubborn or obstinate in accepting knowledge from the Higher Mind, thereby often denying the higher learning that could be available from that source.
In summary, individuals with a low emotional strength react differently than those with a higher emotional coefficient.
Many people might identify themselves with some of the descriptions that follow. Don’t be rough on yourself if your Emotional Coefficient is lower than you wish. Most people walking the face of the Earth have the same problem. Instead, feel relieved that such patterns are typical for people with your position on the Scale Of Consciousness. Also, know that your emotional strength level can be aligned with your position on the Scale Of Consciousness by performing the daily visualization exercise I’m sharing. What you are today is not how you must be a year now. Seemingly incredible changes are within your realm of possibility.
EMOTIONAL STRENGTH LEVEL: 17.0 AND BELOW
Approximately 1% of humanity has an Emotional Strength Level of 17.0 or lower, and when in this stage, physical and emotional accomplishments are limited. Those with this low level of emotional strength usually lack sufficient physical energy to carry on all the usual activities expected of them. If they work 8 hours a day, they have a recurring feeling of tiredness and say that they often need to rest to undertake additional activities.
People on this emotional level feel that every step seems to be an effort – like they are pulling a ball and chain. Some have an emotional sense of self-doubt that sometimes approaches fear. They often feel that they are doormats for the world to walk on.
These people frequently need support when applying for a job or undertaking any ventures. Their self-doubt may contribute to a tendency to be the first to arrive at a workplace in the morning and the last to leave at night. Furthermore, they are reluctant to express their own opinions or to challenge what others say. For these reasons, their friends and associates may consider them the best “emotionally balanced” person. Meanwhile, however, they need someone to lean on, whoever it might be. They tend to be most resentful of those on whom they lean the most, and occasionally, individuals at this level can be expected to explode, expressing their resentment at the situation.
If the Emotional Strength level is 19.0 or below, I would not be surprised to find a disturbing pattern of avoiding responsibility, an inability to get along well with more adult or mature individuals, and a tendency to blame someone else for failing to perform. Those with this lower emotional level could be in the “JUVENILE” range.
EMOTIONAL STRENGTH LEVEL: 20.0-24.0
All aspects of life gradually improve at this higher level of the Emotional Strength level. Effective responsibility, though, is still below the individual’s position on the Scale Of Consciousness but is nevertheless on the upswing. Above 20.0, the individual shows a limited ability to manage or supervise groups; at 24.0 on the scale, the ability to take responsibility for others and to supervise large numbers of people becomes evident.
People with an Emotional Strength of around 20.0 tend to have difficulty controlling their emotions. For example, if they are in a group where everyone feels terrific, they will have trouble controlling their emotional climate. For instance, if they are in a group where everyone feels terrific, they will feel fantastic, too. But if they are with people who are angry, downhearted, or are in any other negative state, they will reflect a similar level of emotions. Many have so little control over their emotional state that they feel like chips of wood about to be whipped about by the sea. Many people with positions on the Scale Of Consciousness above 395 perceive this tendency in themselves and consciously avoid being with people who express negativity.
In the entire bracket between 20.0 and 24.0, indecision is typical. Those at this level may make inappropriate decisions yet still feel they’ve chosen wisely, which results in annoyance followed by guilt and rationalization. They tend to live in a state of confusion, with much of their time spent worrying about “what might happen” no matter what they do. Such people may constantly examine their feelings, seeking ways to improve. Another ability that improves when increasing levels within this range is expressing compassionate love, understanding, and support for others.
EMOTIONAL STRENGTH LEVEL: 25.0-29.0
The range between 25.0 and 29.0 brings a new dynamic forward and an instinctive pattern of increased maturity. From 25.0 to up, this person can be an extremely responsible broad supervisor. People at this level of the scale express more self-confidence and more excellent stability. They operate with incredible smoothness, maintaining a stable, reliable, and cooperative reputation. They are the ones that make the world work.
At 25.0, the individual moves above the level at which people are run by guilt, fears, doubts, jealousy, envy, or other strongly limiting emotional patterns.
Nonetheless, people with this Emotional Strength level still see the world through their own emotionally colored glasses. Individuals between 25.0 and 29.0 are radiant and have more vitality than those at lesser levels. But still, this group experiences that haunting, nagging feeling that something is missing. Since they are often impatient, angry, and resentful at not being recognized or acknowledged adequately, much of their emotional energy goes into these feelings and attitudes, causing confusion, discomfort, and self-doubt.
To everyone else, these people appear successful in everything they do. But within themselves, they feel dissatisfied because they can’t seem to make their lives work the way they know they should or to express their potential more productively.
EMOTIONAL STRENGTH LEVEL: 30.0-39.0
A measurement above 30.0 reflects a significant jump in ability, effective performance, and clear perception. The distortions experienced by emotional levels in the 20.0-29.0 bracket are gone.
Less than 1% of all people are 30.0 or above on the Emotional Strength level scale. A person with a measurement in this range rarely experiences any form of emotional limitation. There is now an increased breadth of power, as well.
They realize tremendous success in life as far as the outside world is concerned. They possess a new expression level of well-poised centeredness, self-control, effectiveness, and maturity. They have eliminated fears, worry, anxiety, and the pattern of playing old tapes and instead take on crystal clear thinking.
They also have a deep inner awareness that things they want to do will be accomplished. We can expect people here to successfully handle their careers and concurrently carry on additional activities, such as participating in social and non-career efforts.
We can expect them to be leaders in their professions and any other activities they are engaged in. With each increase in number, management skills are further broadened and more effective in all activities.
People with an Emotional Strength level between 36.0 and 39.0 manifest their intent in a way others find unusual. For example, when a person with this measurement requests an associate to take some action, the associate finds that even an action they thought was unfeasible seems to work! It’s as if the person with the 39.0 Emotional Strength level radiates an energy that makes their intention happen. Furthermore, when such an individual strongly feels that everyone in their group should undertake some activity, the group will probably gravitate toward the 39.0 person’s wishes. The excellent support they receive to make all of their endeavors effective gives people at this Emotional Strength level a strong sense of success in all that they do.
Stress for people at this level is tied to the very power inherent in the personality of an individual who measures 30.0 and above. Individuals may overestimate their abilities and put an intensity of energy into their expectations, which may drive these people beyond their actual capabilities. If they are dissatisfied with any area of their life, they can put a great deal of energy into these areas of dissatisfaction, thereby increasing the intensity of any problem. Such intensity can cause disturbance for them both physically and emotionally.
EMOTIONAL STRENGTH LEVEL: 40.0 AND ABOVE
There is limited knowledge about those born with an Emotional Strength level of 40.0 or above.
