Introduction

The emotions that people carry with them throughout the day are diverse. People can go from feeling happy to sad to excited to worried. Sometimes a person could experience all of these feelings in just a few hours.

These emotions are vital to everyone’s life. The emotions that people have will dictate many of the things that they do. The things that people think and feel are always more powerful than the actions they do. It is vital for a person’s emotional intelligence to be managed well. However, it is important for people who want to improve their EQ to understand what it entails and how it can be used.

The first thing to do when working with emotional intelligence is to understand what it is. Emotional intelligence is a vital part of life that all people need to possess if they are to be successful and strong-willed individuals.

Emotional intelligence refers to a person’s ability to manage one’s emotions and to handle the emotions of other people as well. It is about knowing what someone is feeling and having the ability to identify what makes those feel different. A universal sense of control is needed for making this part of one’s life easy without adding anything frustrating to the relationship.

This concept is also known as the EQ or emotional quotient. It is different from the traditional intelligence quotient that is utilized to measure a person’s intelligence.

Emotional intelligence has been a topic of interest to many businesses and organizations over the years. Although the concept of EQ was first introduced in the 1960s, it was not until the later part of the twentieth century that people began to take note of EQ. This happened because mental health and a person’s ability to perform on the job have become very important considerations.

The Five Main Categories

There are five categories of emotional intelligence. The five points were introduced by Daniel Goleman, a prominent behavioral sciences expert. Goleman released these five-steps based on understanding what people can do to be stronger leaders in the workplace and to be more proficient in what they can do when helping others. The concepts continue to be important to this day:

1.Self-Awareness

This refers to how well a person is aware of emotions in one’s self and other people. This includes having a clear idea of what people might feel when handling emotions and seeing what causes them to develop.

2. Self-Regulation

Self-regulation is the act of having control over one’s emotions. This includes knowing how long an emotion will last and what can be done to keep an emotion from persisting.

3. Motivation

Motivation is how to use goals and efforts in one’s life. This includes seeing what a person can do while using the right emotions to get where one wants to go.

4. Empathy

While emotional intelligence often focuses on knowing one’s own emotions, empathy is knowing how others feel. This includes understanding what people are thinking and knowing how to react.

5. Social Skills

The ability to interact with people in a positive fashion is vital to one’s success. A person with a high EQ will have the social skills needed to
