Good drivers know that every car has blindspots — areas where you can’t see what’s going on because some part of the vehicle gets in the way. Becoming a good driver means developing the habit of checking your passenger-side mirror before you change lanes.
Turns out, people have blindspots too — especially when it comes to our emotions. An emotional blindspot is a psychological vulnerability that you’re not aware of.
Unfortunately, nobody is required to take a class on what emotions are and how they work before we start living. Which means we go through life with emotional blindspots we’re not aware of and no way to compensate for them.
But we can become aware and find ways to work on them to avoid being used or easily manipulated. @joy_is_voiced
