Emotional intelligence helps more than just oneself. If we apply it correctly, it also helps us inderstand the emotions of others and why they react to things the way they do. It is really an empowering concept, one that will empower the possessor to move through life successfully helping others get where they need to be so that the possessor will get where they want!

My privious post I made mistake and wrote on I.Q.I from India and we are more emotional compare to western people.From Descart time western philosophy given more importance to reason and called emotion as justlike sentmental thinking.
Just from last some year there are some secrious thinking started on emotional thinking. I think this is good sign of balance between reason and emotion. Both are equily important for human living.

Margaret, thanks for sharing this great material. I have recently started going through this very book. I also would love to explore more the concept of spiritual and social intelligence. I know that Mr. Goleman has written a new book regarding social intelligence. I also enjoyed reading the components of emotional intelligence as summarized in your post.

Jonathan,

I think practicing is absolutely the operative word. I do practice EQ. I say it like this, I would love to live to be 100 years old and I hope up until my last moment I am still working on growing my EQ.

Thanks

You see by having emotional awareness you can personally understand your currently emotion. Its fairly related to have a positive and when you feel negative just change you thoughts , by changing how you feel.

Are you practicing EQ?

By having emotional awareness, you can actually feel when you have negative thoughts. And since you are aware, you can change it just as fast as you got the negative thoughts.

So being aware of how you feel is essential in directing your life in a positive direction.
