Salaams and Good Morning !

Here is your daily dose of Wisdom for Living Your Best Self!

What do you think of when you think of when you think of someone who is intelligent? Are they logical, good at learning, solving problems, taking tests?

This is the traditional view of intelligence which is defined as the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills, solve problems, and adapt to new situations. Intelligence or IQ can also be defined as the ability that intelligence tests measure.

For the last few decades, however, psychologists and scientists have begun to question this limited understanding of intelligence.

The most famous challenge, perhaps, was launched in 1996 by Dan Goleman with the publication of his book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. Goleman claimed that emotional intelligence or EQ is another aspect of intelligence that is often overlooked but it is what often determines success or failure in our lives.

Before we go any further, let us understand what we mean by EQ.

Essentially, EQ is defined as the ability to:
a) Recognize, understand and manage our own emotions.
And
b) Recognize, understand and manage the emotions of others.

As we will see in this series, understanding and managing our emotions and those of others can be extremely valuable in living up to our full potential and in forming strong relationships.

I am so excited to share this content with you!

Wishing you a day full of positivity, purpose and peace.
Warm blessings
