No matter how high our IQ is, EQ - our emotional intelligence - is almost even more important to our daily lives. If tears, vulnerability and other displays of emotion were once signs of weakness, today open expression of emotion is a sign of a strong mind. What qualities do emotionally intelligent people have?
The Korn Ferry Hay Group conducted an extensive study comparing men and women in the area of emotional intelligence and how the latter contributes to successful leadership. The main findings are that women performed better than men in eleven out of twelve competencies. An area where most men outperformed women is in the area of emotional self-control.
We've all experienced it. Someone hurt us intentionally or unintentionally. We try to minimize the pain as much as possible and deal with it. It's normal to be angry at the person who hurt us, but anger only makes things worse. And even if these people don't ask or don't deserve it, forgive them. Whether it's a family member, a friend or an ex-partner - you deserve inner peace, and you'll only get it if you know how to forgive.
Wondering what your astrological sign says about your intelligence? Although we are all intelligent in our own way, these two astrological signs in particular stand out.
Anger is understood in our society as an unpleasant and forbidden emotion that we should be ashamed of and hide. But this is an emotion like any other, the only question is why, when, where and in what way to express it. Many people struggle with anger but cannot control it. Science discovers five extremely unusual things with which you can tame it.
Each zodiac sign has its own strengths and weaknesses, each has its own behavior, its own moods, its own traits and beliefs. Some astrological signs are thus very emotional, while others are logical. And which astrological signs are the wisest and can't be fooled?
Empathy is the ability of an individual to put himself in the shoes of another and understand his perspective. Broadly speaking, empathy is divided into cognitive and emotional parts. Empathy probably evolved as an evolutionarily meaningful tool for the preservation of the human species. Man is a social being and it would be very difficult for him to survive alone. Among other things, empathy allows us to come to each other's aid. Empathy quotient tells us whether we have high or low empathy compared to other people. The answers to these 7 questions will tell you how empathetic you are.
Sensitive and emotional people should accept their emotionality. It is important that we do so. If we think about it, we are extremely lucky to be like this - the essence of life is to feel and enjoy all the emotions it brings us! But where are the traps?
Genius and high intelligence do not always come without a toll. They are accompanied by rather unusual but clear signs. If you recognize yourself in what is written, then you are definitely not average. Far from it!
This is a question that is being asked by countless people around the world. Your mind has a thousand reasons why this person is bad for you, why it won't work out, all the danger alarms are on - run! But for some unknown reason, her heart wants him badly, badly. So your head chooses the safer option, your heart wants to take the risk.
