Because it might be similar to trying to bury the sense of touch or taste, smell. Very difficult because they're integral parts of the person. I mean, I wish I could bury or switch off certain elements of my own emotions but I've not yet found a way. So, the next thing is, for me, learning how to manage them. And I'm still learning[!] - or growing, depends how you look at it.
TLC, are you personally able to switch off your emotions? - serious question. Because if you can, I'd like to learn the secret. |
What I believe is, even healthy scientists and doctors - who have healthy brains - learn to be the become "emotionless and cold."
As of my secret, I just try not to think about it too much (personal problems that can affect my effciency) Also, I am already emotionally numb due to many health reasons...
As for other's secrets, the one I've observed is my psychiatrist. He just doesn't give a damn about anything related to his patients and he's a damn good actor so he does know when to act like he cares or not. Scientific method requires you to 'bury' your wants of becoming famous, rich and the like. So you need to do your work the most efficient way possible. Simply it is, "Don't think about it before achieving it." It can be learned and although everyone's psyche is different I believe it takes time and practice and you're good to go.
