Let me clear up the misconception.

Emotional intelligence is not about discussing your feelings in a circle & crying all day.

The baby brains do not understand this.

'So what is it then?'

Emotional intelligence is when your mind has mastery & understanding over your emotions.

'What happens if I refuse to become emotionally intelligent?'

You will rot.

'Really??'

Ya.

WAKE UP.

Don't you see what's happening?

You are an emotional creature at the core, not a logical one.

'But my mommy said I was logical tho!'

And your mommy misinformed you 👇

Your emotional brain processes information BEFORE your logical brain.

'Hm...any examples?'

Ya.

Think about sales.

Anyone who is an excellent marketer will tell you that people buy the feelings associated with the product, then justify it with logic.

'Really? I could have sworn it was the other way around.'

Nah.

Let me dig a little deeper into this example.

I've worked as an electrical engineer for many years in my life.

And I can name 10 different laptops that are better than the Mac.

But if you are an Apple fan, all the facts that I'm throwing at you about RAM, processing speed, operating system will fly over your head.

All you care about is the feeling that the Apple brand provides for you.

'Whoa. You're right!'

And this is just one of many examples of how you feel first than think after.

Making this understanding will change your view on life FOREVER.

Don't you see?

True intelligence is when your mind has power over your emotions.

You are no longer the impulsive creature that blindly follows disruptive emotions.

When your mind has a clear understanding of your internal world, you will feel free.

Only then will anxiety, sadness, anger etc make much more sense.

Once you understand your internal world, now you can understand someone else's internal world.

Empathy 101.

Boom.

Life is renovated.

You need to learn the art of tuning into your body.
