THE IMPORTANCE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

The importance of emotional intelligence has to do with knowing how to control emotions for our own well-being. That is why said Emotional Intelligence is the plus that will really allow us to live a life with greater confidence and security.

Many people are deluded into thinking that high intelligence quotients, those determined by tests, or success in business give us the label of "self-confident", and with that fact they already believe that it is enough to feel fulfilled. That is a false perception of things.

You can be the most efficient surgeon, the best architect, the most honest lawyer, the most outstanding soccer player, the most enterprising merchant; but if you do not have emotional intelligence in your life there will always be instability. The reason is very simple to explain but not easy to understand, especially for those who have a selfish and linear thought focused in only one direction according to which they are always the right ones and the others are the wrong ones.

Many people who are successful in their careers and have problems in other aspects of their lives are not able to handle them properly because their emotions run rampant. Many examples could be given of people who are brilliant in business and their careers, and yet at the family or couple level they are totally unstable because they cannot control their impulsiveness, this is because said person lacks the concept of Emotional Intelligence.

Many of the people who are successful in certain aspects of their lives are arrogant, and this arrogance makes them forget that in other facets they could also be the best.

The instability of these people occurs because to achieve such emotional intelligence, the first thing to do is to recognize your own weaknesses and defects in yourself, and to be tougher, perhaps we could talk about having to defeat that "gross" side. and "stupid" in us.

From there, from the analysis of those weaknesses, from recognizing them, something very valuable is achieved: acquiring empathy. That is understanding what others feel, the ego begins to deflate, and one is more careful about the things that are said and the reactions that one has; It is like a whole mental prophylaxis that frees you from egomania, arrogance, pettiness and other mental conflicts that do not leave a part of our being alone.

It's like a mental revolution, since you get used to watching each of your thoughts to do the right thing, not only for the benefit of one but for the good of others. That is something very important, because that way our conscience is clear. But of course, learning or acquiring Emotional Intelligence is a process that takes time, it is a winding path, with ups and downs, and yet it is worth going through because controlling our emotions is the key to our happiness. And do not forget that said control implies perseverance in decreeing positive thoughts in the mind.

Finally, it must be said that acquiring empathy is the first step to firmly develop said Emotional Intelligence, which is much more important in life than achieving titles or achieving success at work, because controlling emotions gives you true stability.

Having emotional intelligence is having the correct balance to adequately weigh successes and failures and be able to locate yourself at the point of balance, the right point where a serene, sensible and happy person should always be.
