How
high is your EQ?
EQ
is shorthand for Emotional Quota. And put simply, can be explained like
this:
Our
brains have two parts, each with very different functions and abilities.
One
part, often labeled the ‘left brain’ is concerned with logic,
calculation, intellect – it is our thinking part, the place where
our thoughts live.
The
so-called right brain is involved with spontaneity, creativity,
appreciation of beauty and awareness of the senses in the present moment.
It is where our intuition lives.
The
qualities of EQ are the qualities of the intuitive part of us.
People
with high EQ are more in touch with their feelings and senses, have more
empathy for others, and more self-awareness.
And
according to scientific research, are much more likely to be successful
in their goals than people who just have a higher IQ.
Surprising?
Not when you really study it.
EQ
vs IQ
Conventional
education focuses on developing our IQ. It has its value. It is logical,
analytical, information-oriented, and on its own, is destined to
be completely unbalanced.
The
lack of emphasis developing our EQ can profoundly affect our lives.
We call it polite names like stress, over-burden, and sometimes burnout,
but in reality it is a kind of everyday human madness, from being over-identified
with our thoughts.
To
identify the issues in this way is to begin to address them.
