Abstract
This paper explores a growing emotional conflict in modern professional and personal lives. It observes that professionals often exhibit increased childish behaviors in formal settings due to emotional fragility, while simultaneously bringing professional coldness into their personal relationships. As a result, individuals experience dissatisfaction in both domains. The study highlights the psychological roots of this imbalance, its emotional consequences, and suggests pathways for restoring emotional harmony to enhance overall life satisfaction.
