 What is It

You may have heard people mention "IQ" when talking about intellect
and how smart someone is. (For example, "My brother doesn't need to study as much
as I do because he has a really high IQ.") IQ stands for "intellectual quotient." It can
help predict how well someone may do academically. IQ is just one measure of our
abilities, though.
There are many other kinds of intelligence in addition to intellect. For
example, spatial intelligence is the ability to think in 3D. Musical intelligence is the
ability to recognize rhythm, cadence, and tone. Athletic, artistic, and mechanical
abilities are other types of intelligence.
One important type of intelligence is emotional intelligence.
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand, use, and manage
our emotions.
Emotional intelligence is sometimes called EQ (or EI) for short. Just as a high
IQ can predict top test scores, a high EQ can predict success in social and emotional
situations. EQ helps us build strong relationships, make good decisions, and deal
with difficult situations.
One way to think about EQ is that it's part of being people-smart.
Understanding and getting along with people helps us be successful in almost any
area of life. In fact, some studies show that EQ is more important than IQ when it
comes to doing well in school or being successful at work.

Emotional intelligence is a combination of several different skills:

Being Aware of Your Emotions

Most people feel many different emotions throughout the day. Some feelings
(like surprise) last just a few seconds. Others may stay longer, creating a mood like
happiness or sadness. Being able to notice and accurately label these everyday
feelings is the most basic of all the EQ skills. Being aware of emotions — simply
noticing them as we feel them — helps us manage our own emotions. It also helps
us understand how other people feel. But some people might go through the entire
day without really noticing their emotions. Practice recognizing emotions as you feel
them. Label them in your mind (for example, by saying to yourself "I feel grateful," "I
feel frustrated," etc.). Make it a daily habit to be aware of your emotions

Understanding How Others Feel and Why

People are naturally designed to try to understand others. Part of EQ is being
able to imagine how other people might feel in certain situations. It is also about
understanding why they feel the way they do. Being able to imagine what emotions
a person is likely to be feeling (even when you don't actually know) is called
empathy. Empathy helps us care about others and build good friendships and
relationships. It guides us on what to say and how to behave around someone who
is feeling strong emotions.

Managing Emotional Reactions

We all get angry. We all have disappointments. Often, it's important to express
how you feel. But managing your reaction means knowing when, where, and how to

11
express yourself. When you understand your emotions and know how to manage
them, you can use self-control to hold a reaction if now is not the right time or place
to express it. Someone who has good EQ knows it can damage relationships to react
to emotions in a way that's disrespectful, too intense, too impulsive, or harmful.

Choosing Your Mood

Part of managing emotions is choosing our moods. Moods are emotional states
that last a bit. We have the power to decide what mood is right for a situation, and
then to get into that mood. Choosing the right mood can help someone get motivated,
concentrate on a task, or try again instead of giving up. People with good EQ know
that moods aren't just things that happen to us. We can control them by knowing
which mood is best for a particular situation and how to get into that mood.

EQ: Under Construction

Emotional intelligence is something that develops as we get older. If it didn't,
all adults would act like little kids, expressing their emotions physically through
stomping, crying, hitting, yelling, and losing control!
Some of the skills that make up emotional intelligence develop earlier. They
may seem easier: For example, recognizing emotions seems easy once we know what
to pay attention to. But the EQ skill of managing emotional reactions and choosing
a mood might seem harder to master. That's because the part of the brain that's
responsible for self-management continues to mature beyond our teen years. But
practice helps those brain pathways develop.
We can all work to build even stronger emotional intelligence skills just by
recognizing what we feel, understanding how we got there, understanding how
others feel and why, and putting our emotions into heartfelt words when we need to.

Types of Responses
1. Passive Response – Behaving passively means not expressing your own
needs and feelings, or expressing them so weakly that they will not be
addressed. A passive response is not usually in your best interest, because
it allows other people to violate your rights. Yet there are times when being
passive is the most appropriate response. It is important to assess whether
a situation is dangerous and choose the response most likely to keep you
safe.
2. Aggressive Response – Behaving aggressively is asking for what you want
or saying how you fell in a threatening, sarcastic or humiliating way that
may offend the other person. An aggressive response is never in your best
interest, because it almost leads to increased conflict.
3. Assertive Response – Behaving assertively means asking for what you
want or saying how you feel in an honest and respectful way that does not
infringe on another person’s rights or put the individual down. An
assertive response is almost always in your best interest, since it is your
best chance of getting what you want without offending the other person.
At times, however, being assertive can be inappropriate. If tempers are
high, if people have been using alcohol or other drugs, if people have
weapons or if you are in unsafe place, being assertive may not be the safest
choice.
