For the longest time, it was believed that being book smart was all you needed to get by in life. That is until a different kind of smart was introduced into the picture. Emotional intelligence is essentially the kind of smart you need to understand your emotions, relate well to people, and handle the curve balls that life may throw at you. People with emotional intelligence seem to have everything figured out because they have mastered the most important thing of all: they have learned themselves.
Human intelligence cannot be generalized into just one single ability. Infact, people have different intelligences. However is our ability to grasp and communicate our emotions that plays a crucial role in determining how successful we are in life.
Here is a tiny fraction of what you will learn:
✓ What are emotions for?
✓ How to develop empathy in your everyday life
✓ Building emotional bridges to connect with others
✓ Emotional drain signs and how to deal with energy vampires
✓ TROUBLESHOOTING EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
...And much more
Nowadays, some employers make it a criterion to take an emotional intelligence test as part of their screening procedure, because they believe that those with higher an EQ make excellent leaders and relate better with people.
Most people do not know how handy it is to have people's skill. I know of a woman who is a good real estate agent. She works by the books and sold so many properties, but her emotional intelligence at that time was low. She couldn't connect well with her clients. When they tried to beat down the price of a property due to some issues, she could not relate. She started to lose her clients, and her boss had to tell her to take some time off to take some classes on people's management.
