emotional intelligence

What is emotional intelligence?

We define emotional intelligence as knowing yourself, choosing yourself, and giving yourself. This model is intended to help you increase EQ to get optimal results from your relationships with yourself and others. The formal, scientific, definition of emotional intelligence comes from Dr. Peter Salovey and Dr. John Mayer who say emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, use, understand, and manage emotions.

How do I use it?

You can increase your emotional intelligence by practicing being more aware, by being more conscious of your choices, and by deliberately blending your thinking plus feeling to generate better decisions.
Being "emotionally intelligent" doesn't mean "being nice," it means consciously and carefully processing and using emotional information and emotional energy. The moment you begin to value emotions as a source of information and energy, you will begin to get more positive results in your relationship with yourself and others. Everyone has emotional intelligence -- you have the chance to increase yours!

Why should I?

It's not a question of should -- it's a question of want. Are you completely satisfied with your relationship with yourself and others? If not, develop the "muscles" that govern those relationships. If you want more joy and satisfaction in your life, develop the awareness that let's you gain those. The research is increasingly clear: EQ skills improve physical and emotional health, communication, academic performance, leadership, teamwork, and more. Because these are foundational skills (ie., at the root of many of our daily interactions) EQ makes a lot of difference!

eb9ara7a:
لا يوجد جديد في هالدنيا
بس السؤال - هل أكتشفت هذا النوع من العلم و كيفية تطوير ذاتك فيه

الهدف هنا ليس قديم أو جديد
و إنما التذكير باستخدامة

;)
قال تعالى:

لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِّن بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ يَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللّهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ لاَ يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُواْ مَا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللّهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُوءًا فَلاَ مَرَدَّ لَهُ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِ مِن وَالٍ


القرآن تحدث عن التغيير من آلاف السنين


و في آية أخرى تتكلم عن الذكاء العاطفي و هي :


سَنُرِيهِمْ آيَاتِنَا فِي الْآفَاقِ وَفِي أَنفُسِهِمْ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ أَوَلَمْ يَكْفِ بِرَبِّكَ أَنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ


the point is :

it's all in you , but you have to discover it .
