7 Habits of Highly Emotionally Intelligent People
It has increasingly become accepted that emotional intelligence is an important factor in our success and happiness, not only at work, but in our relationships and all areas of our lives.
So what sets emotionally intelligent people apart? Here are seven habits that people with high Emotional intelligence have:1. THEY FOCUS ON THE POSITIVE
While not ignoring the bad news, emotionally intelligent people have made a conscious decision to not spend a lot of time and energy focusing on problems. Rather, they look at what is positive in a situation and look for solutions to a problem. These people focus on what they are able to do and that which is within their control.2. THEY SURROUND THEMSELVES WITH POSITIVE PEOPLE
People with a lot of emotional intelligence don't spend a lot of time listening to complainers and tend to avoid negative people. They are aware negative people are an energy drain and are not willing to let others exhaust their vitality. Because they always look for solutions and the positive in situations, negative people quickly learn to avoid positive people as misery loves company.3. THEY ARE ABLE TO SET BOUNDARIES AND BE ASSERTIVE WHEN NECESSARY
Although their friendly, open nature may make them appear as pushovers to some, people with high EI are able to set boundaries and assert themselves when needed.They do not make needless enemies.They think before speaking and give themselves time to calm down if their emotions appear to become overwhelming.4. THEY ARE FORWARD THINKING AND WILLING TO LET GO OF THE PAST
People with high EI are too busy thinking of possibilities in the future to spend a lot of time dwelling upon things that didn't work out in the past. They take the learning from their past failures and apply it to their actions in the future. They never see failure as permanent or a personal reflection of themselves.5. THEY LOOK FOR WAYS TO MAKE LIFE MORE FUN, HAPPY, AND INTERESTING
Whether it is in their workplace, at home, or with friends, high EI people know what makes them happy and look for opportunities to expand the enjoyment. They receive pleasure and satisfaction from seeing others happy and fulfilled, and do whatever they can to brighten someone else's day.6. THEY CHOOSE HOW THEY EXPEND THEIR ENERGY WISELY
While these enlightened people are good at moving on from the past when things didn't work out as expected, they are also able to move on from conflicts involved with others.They don't hold on to anger over how others have treated them, rather use the incident to create awareness of how to not let it happen again.7. CONTINUALLY LEARNING AND GROWING TOWARDS INDEPENDENCE
Highly emotionally intelligent people are lifelong learners, constantly growing, evolving, open to new ideas, and always willing to learn from others. Being critical thinkers, they are open to changing their minds if someone presents an idea that is a better fit. While they are open to ideas from others, and continuously gathering new information, they ultimately trust themselves and their own judgment to make the best decision for themselves.www.keralites.net |
