wat is emotional intelligence?any good examples?

Answer 1

introduced by Dr. Daniel Goleman...it's a new branch in psychology that focus on emotions and how they are manifested in our lives
According to EI,(emotional intelligence) we can teach ourselves how to control our emotions in order not to "loose" them. As in if you're angry, you can spot your anger by learning to focus on the adrenaline rush that accompanies it. When you realize you're gettin heated, learn to breath and relax your muscules in order to calm yourself down instead of grabbing something and throwing it on who's bothering you.
It's also learning all our emotions and how to vent them out positively in order for us to become more assertive instead of aggressive.
That's EI to cut it short.....alot goes in to it...so i urge you to read more on the subject....it's very interesting...and it really matters more that IQ

Answer 2

I think I'll go about a description of EI another way. The best thing you can do to enhance your emotional intelligence is the place a name on the emotion you are feeling.

If you're mad you're not ussually just angry. Anger in my day to day life is generally caused by frustration.

Knowing that I am frustrated allows me to inspect my current situation and decide if whatever I'm doing is hopeless, my method is too difficult, or it is just taking longer than I expected. And act accordingly.

So...thats my EI example.
