Perhaps you said the wrong thing in anger and your partner broke up with you, or you failed to empathize with a friend, who quickly grew offended by your lack of concern for his wellbeing. Maybe you struggled to mesh well with your coworkers, and your boss told you to look long and hard at yourself to understand where you are going so wrong in life.
Emotional intelligence is crucial to succeeding in the modern world. In an economy based almost entirely on services, you need to be able to key in quickly and efficiently to the emotional states or needs of those around you in order to understand how to best serve not only yourself but the other person as well. When emotional intelligence is at its highest, you fit smoothly into the cogs of society, and both you and whoever you are currently interacting with have your needs met.
However, most people typically do not have the high levels of emotional intelligence (also known as their emotional quotient, or EQ) needed to achieve such a smooth exchange.
Luckily, emotional intelligence is a skill that can be built upon, rather than being a fixed value that you will be trapped with indefinitely! By boosting your EQ, you will find your relationships getting easier, as well as feeling as though you, yourself, are becoming happier. Through becoming more emotionally aware, you are able to alter your very mindset, stepping back from the negativity that once plagued you, and finally being free of the control of your emotions.
Through this book, you will learn how to strengthen each of the four core domains that build up your emotional intelligence:
- Self-awareness
- Self-management
- Social awareness
- Relationship management
Understanding these four domains will be your key to building up your own EQ and unlocking the world that is available to only those with high levels of EQ.
Within the pages of this book, you will be guided on your journey toward bettering your own emotional intelligence. It will teach you what you will need to be successful on your journey and point you in the right direction toward bettering yourself.
As you read through Emotional Intelligence Practical Guide, you will find:
- Basic descriptions of the fundamentals of emotional intelligence, including the framework that builds it
- A multitude of examples of what low EQ can do to your relationships, as well as how higher EQ can strengthen them
- Explanations of how EQ can be measured and tested

- And more!
