So, I shouldn't make a decision to get my life together and clean up my act when I'm sad?

Not great advice at all. Catfluff points out an obvious one- if you’re sad and you don’t make any decisions.... that doesn’t work well. Never decide because you are sad might be better. Same apples to anger. Reacting from emotion alone is generally ill advised although occasionally prudent. If you wouldn’t do something if you weren’t in a strong emotional state- you likely shouldn’t do it simply because you are. That isn’t to say you should never act when an emotional state enhances your reaction.

For all those who like to get technical. Kissing a person WHILE you are feeling strong love, a romantic atmosphere etc. is fine if you would kiss them normally but the current situation enhances the mood or provides an opportunity or appropriate context. That is different from kissing a person simply because you are wrapped up in emotion, and wouldn’t otherwise act that way.

When we act purely from emotion- any intelligence our decisions may have is mainly luck. If things turn out well it is because we got lucky. In anger for example- we tend to speak things we wouldn’t otherwise. We may not think of consequences, we may simply want to hurt the other person and will say whatever we think will hurt them in that moment- even if it is someone we normally wouldn’t want to hurt. Any strong emotion unchecked will tend to have us react in a way that is only focused on our own feelings and not the feelings of others. So “think before you act, don’t act rashly” is perhaps better to say.
