          A person who is governed more by intellect than by emotion would have to be a teacher. I say a teacher because, teachers' get criticized all the time during class and in between. Teachers are very patient and deal with a lot of stress all during the day. They deal with kids saying mean things about them to kids talking constantly, disturbing the whole lesson and distracting other class mates. Teachers are strongly governed by intellect because of there way of disiplining the students.
          Teachers hold back their emotion during class and use their heads to dicipline the students. A teacher does not let their emotion get to them. They stick to guid rules and go by them. They do not favor a student over another one just because that student listens more. They dont let the words and name calling get to them. teachers do not go by what they feel inside they do not wear their heart on their sleve they hide their feelings and keep teaching and ignore the negative things being said about them.
          The positive things that come from being intellectual rather than following your feelings in that moment of time is that you will not lash out at someone or everyone for that quick moment of depressoin. Instead you will keep it inside and think about what you are going to say before you hurt someone for something they didnt do. A negative outcome of being intellectual rather than following your feelings, is that keeping it all inside for to long starts to build up and then on a day you cant handle it all you will lash out at someone unintentionally and hurt their feelings.

A situation someone might feel she has been rejected multiple times is when they are in school. A student might feel she has to change her appearance. In the beginning of the school year she wore sweats and baggy clothing, never wore make-up and let her hair flow freely. She tried to hang out with the “cool group” but no matter how hard she tried, they rejected her friendship with criticism about her looks and size. She started to think that maybe the way she was dressing affected her ability to make friends with others.
She changed her way of dressing and started to wear skinnies and tighter clothing. She went up to the “cool group” to hang out and see if the friendship would work again. It did not; they once again rejected her with rude comments of how she is trying to wear things that she shouldn’t be allowed to possess. She took this to heart and really started to try and fit to that group. She began to wear make-up and change her way of hair style.
She changed the way she dressed, the way she acted, and the way she looked physically. She once again walked up to the “cool group” and tried to start conversation with them only to be put down by the rude and crucial things they had to say about her. She thought that if she changed her appearance to their appeal it would help her become part of their group, but it never worked. She learned you don’t have to change the way you are to fit in with others, because all that will do is bring yourself down.
