Abstract

From an evolutionary perspective, the brain is geared up for survival. To survive there is a primary requirement on its capacity to perceive danger. Many organisations are chronically perfected to create danger signals in the minutiae of defining performance demands. Immense amounts of energy are wasted in consequence. As an understanding of individual brain potential develops individuals begin to thrive, and the organisation benefits from energy released into the achieving of operational and strategic goals. Flow is generated and the individual well-being of individuals improves enormously.

A literature review that started with a search limitation of the decade 2008–2018, though got somewhat larger as back references were also pursued, and that had the aim of seeing what the literature said about emotions, feelings, moods and states was stopped after fifty-seven pages of references had been accumulated, with a sense that there was enough data from which to begin to draw some assumptions and make some proposals (Brown and Dzendrowskyj 2018).

They also create moods and states. Emotions, feelings, moods and states are words that get used interchangeably. That does not make for scientific precision or understanding.

Whenever we invoke ‘evolution’, it’s worth remembering that none of us were there when it was happening. All statements about evolution are necessarily inferential. Evolutionary biologists can get rather more inferential than even psychoanalysts’ imagining of what was supposed to have happened in the past.
