EQ has
something to do with your understanding of emotions. It refers to people’s
awareness, management and expression of emotions. EQ plays an important role in
success. If you are not satisfied with your EQ, you can use the following five
ways to improve it.
Know
your own emotions-Recognise and
name the emotions you feel; understand why you feel them; distinguish between
feelings and actions and tell yourself what you are feeling.
Motivate
yourself-You need to
consider how to control your feelings productively. Practise some emotional
self-control and delay satisfaction. A study found that people who delayed
satisfaction were more successful later in life-as measured by a
lot of factors including happiness, income and job satisfaction-than those who did not do that. You need to find a balance of
emotions and motivate yourself to do something about it.
Recognise
emotions in others-The ability of
listening to another person’s opinions is a skill that effective managers have.
Emotionally intelligent persons are also sensitive to other people’s feelings
and listen to others well.
Manage
your emotions-Accept your
feelings, but find a balance between oversensitivity and emotional suppression(抑制). When you are angry or unhappy, you need to find a way to
get out of the mood. It is healthy to express your emotions, rather than
keeping them hidden.
Handle
relationships-Applying conflict
management skills instead of ignoring conflicts and being considerate and
cooperative are part of controlling relationships. Communication skills are
essential to healthy relationships.
