Characteristics of emotional intelligence

Being aware of your emotions and emotional responses to those around you can greatly improve your emotional intelligence. Knowing when you’re feeling anxious or angry can help you process and communicate those feelings in a way that promotes healthy results.

1. Be more self-aware

Emotional intelligence may start with self-reflection, but it’s also important to gauge how others perceive your behavior and communication. Knowing how to adjust your own message based on how you’re being received is an important part of being emotionally intelligent.

2. Recognize how others feel

People communicate via both verbal and nonverbal communication, so it’s important to listen and watch for potentially positive and negative reactions. Taking the time to listen to others also indicates a level of respect that can form the foundation for healthy relationships.

3. Practice active listening

Strong communication skills are essential for emotional intelligence. Knowing what to say or write and when to deliver information is crucial for building strong relationships. For example, as a manager in a work environment, communicating expectations and goals is necessary to keep everyone on the same page.

4. Communicate clearly

Nothing is more contagious than a positive attitude. Emotionally intelligent people understand the power of a positive word, an encouraging email and a kind gesture. When you’re able to also stay positive in a stressful situation, you can help others around you remain calm. This attitude also can encourage further problem-solving and teamwork.

5. Stay positive

Considering how others might be feeling is an important quality of emotional intelligence. It means you can empathize with feelings that you may not be feeling yourself and respond in a way that’s respectful and comforting to others.

6. Empathize

Emotionally intelligent people are easy to approach because they’re good listeners and able to consider and understand other perspectives. They’re also open to learning new things and embracing new ideas.

7. Be open-minded

It’s important to be the kind of person who can hear feedback, whether it’s positive feedback on a recent presentation or more critical recommendations on how you should delegate tasks more efficiently. Being open to feedback means you can take responsibility for your actions and are willing to improve how you communicate with others.

8. Listen to feedback

It’s important to be able to approach stressful situations with a calm and positive attitude. Tensions can easily escalate, especially when people are working under deadlines, so keeping steady and focusing on finding a solution will help everyone meet their goals.

9. Stay calm under pressure

“When awareness is brought to an emotion, power is brought to your life.”-Tara Meyer Robson

You must be yourself. This means asking for what you want, setting boundaries, having your own beliefs and opinions, standing up for your values, wearing the clothes you want to wear, eating the food you want to eat, saying the things you want to say, and in a hundred other ways being you and not somebody small or false.

1. Be yourself

You come with attributes, capacities and proclivities and you are molded in a certain environment. But at some point you must say, “Okay, this is what is original to me and this is how I have been formed but now who do I want to be?” You reduce your emotional distress by deciding to become a person who will experience less emotional distress: a calmer person, a less critical person, a less egoistic person, a more productive person, a less self-abusive person, and so on.

2. Invent yourself

Part of our nature requires solitude, alone time, and a substantial rugged individualism. But this isn’t the whole story of our nature. We feel happier, warmer and better, live longer, and experience life as more meaningful if we love and let ourselves be loved. We must be individuals (see tips 1 and 2) but we must also relate. To do both, to both be ourselves and relate, requires that we acknowledge the reality of others, include others in our plans, not only speak but listen, and makes ourselves fit by eliminating our more egregious faults and by growing up.

3. Love and be loved

Nothing causes more emotional distress than the thoughts we think. We must do a better job than we usually do of identifying the thoughts that don’t serve us, disputing them and demanding that they go away, and substituting more useful thoughts. Thinking thoughts that do not serve you is the equivalent of serving yourself up emotional distress. Only you can get a grip on your own mind; if you won’t do that work, you will live in distress.

4. Get a grip on your mind

We are not so completely in control of our being that we can prevent past sore points from returning. They have a way of pestering us as anxious sweats, nightmares, sudden sadness, and waves of anger or defeat. But we can nevertheless try to exorcise the past by not playing along with our human tendency to wallow there. We must tell ourselves to move on and mean it. If you have a secret attachment to misery, you will feel miserable. As best you can, imperfectly but with real energy, let go of the past and forget the past.

5. Forget the past

Rampant anxiety ruins our equilibrium, colors our mood, and makes all the already hard tasks of living that much harder. There are many anxiety management strategies you might want to try—breathing techniques, cognitive techniques, relaxation techniques, and so on—but what will make all the difference is if you can locate that “inner switch” that controls your anxious nature and, deciding that you prefer to live more calmly. No longer over-dramatize, that you will no longer catastrophize, that you will no longer live a fearful life or create unnecessary anxiety for yourself.

6. Flip the anxiety switch off

Meaning is nothing more arcane than a certain sort of subjective psychological experience. We can have much more meaning in our life if we stop looking for it, as if it were lost or as if someone else knew more about it than we did, and realize that it is in our power to influence meaning and even make it. By making daily meaning investments and by seizing daily meaning opportunities we hold meaning crises at bay and experience life as meaningful. Meaning problems produce severe emotional distress and learning the art of value-based meaning-making dramatically reduces that distress.

7. Make meaning

You can decide that the meaning you make is more important to you than the mood you find yourself in. You start each day by announcing to yourself exactly how you intend to make meaning on that day, how you intend to deal with routine chores and tasks, how you intend to relax—how, in short, you mean to spend your day—and you consider all of that, the rich and the mundane alike, as the project of your life, one that you are living with grace and in good spirits. You reduce your emotional distress by checking in more on your intentions and less on your mood.

8. Let meaning trump mood

You may not be the person you would like to be. You may be angrier than you would like to be, more impulsive, more scattered, more self-sabotaging, more undisciplined, more frightened. If so, you require a personality upgrade, which of course only you can supply. You choose a feature of your personality you would like to upgrade and then you ask yourself, what thoughts align with this intention and what actions align with this intention? Then you think the appropriate thoughts and take the necessary action. In this way, you become the person capable of reducing your emotional distress.

9. Upgrade your personality

Circumstances matter. Our economic circumstances matter; our relationships matter; our work conditions matter; our health matters; whether our nation is at peace or occupied by invaders matters. Many circumstances are completely out of our control and many are within our control. We can change jobs or careers, we can divorce, we can reduce our calorie intake, we can stand up or keep quiet, we can do exactly as much as we can do to improve our circumstances. As a result of those improvements, we feel emotionally better. Emotional healing requires that you take real action in the real world.

10. Deal with circumstances

“Emotion is created by a cause, whether that cause is factual or imaginary does not matter, as longer as the believer holds it as true.”

10 Tips for Emotional Healing

It’s time to cut back on juice and sugar-sweetened beverages.The consumption of sugary beverages is blamed for lowering total brain volume and hippocampal volume.It’s best to eat whole fruit instead of consuming it in drink form. The British Heart Foundation says blending fruit causes natural sugars “to be released from within the cell walls of the fruit and become ‘free sugars’” — with included added sugars like honey and maple syrup.

Fruit juices and other sugary beverages  

Alcoholic beverages affect your brain’s communication pathways to a great extent. It becomes difficult for a person who drinks a lot of alcohol to remember things and process new data while leaving him depressed and disordered easily. To avoid such damage to the brain, women should not drink more than one glass of alcohol and men should stick to two glasses in a day.

Too much alcohol  

The gut contains beneficial bacteria known as the microbiota, which plays a key role in maintaining health in both the body and mind. These health benefits include mental health as well. This is known as the ‘gut-brain axis. This line of communication works both ways, linking the emotional and cognitive centers of the brain with peripheral intestinal function. This connection makes it vitally important to keep the gut healthy and the microbiome in balance. Sugar in the diet can lead to gut dysbiosis [an imbalance].

Refined sugar

Refined grains elevate inflammation and can worsen one’s mental health.Instead of eating refined grains with foods like pasta, opt for a more whole grain option to help-out your head.Elevated levels of inflammation have been linked to mental health disorders, including depression and fatigue.

Refined grains

If you think that diet soda is better for your brain, be warned. Studies have shown even diet soft drinks, which some are led to believe are healthier options, have been tied to elevated brain inflammation and increased risk of depression.

Diet soft drinks 

Another type of foods to steer clear of to bolster brain health are the snacks that cause inflammation.Junk, fried foods, sugary products and red meat are the enemies of your brain if you overindulge in them.

Inflammatory foods

It may not a specific food or category of food, but, guzzling up too many calories regularly can potentially be bad news for brain health, according to experts.In addition, overeating or consuming a lot of calories in a shorter period is linked with an increased risk of memory-related problems and overall cognitive impairment. Overeating causes obesity that contributes to diabetes, high blood pressure and heart diseases, which are believed to be further causing Alzheimer’s and other brain illnesses.

There are many reasons to want to eat well, but among them, one priority may be to promote your brain health. From reducing your risk of dementia to supporting mental health, experts say there are good reasons to limit these foods and drinks if you aren’t doing so already.

What experts says are the worst foods and drinks for brain health

What we all suffer from in today's modern world is that we don't have enough time to do all our work. After a while, we get so caught up in this hustle and bustle that we don't even think to question what we're striving for or whether it's really worth the effort.

Time

"Would you like to know how they do not live long? See how keen they are to live long."

"But life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present and fear the future."

We spend our lives procrastinating on good things, and we end up as someone who regrets the things he/she didn't do in time.

Postpone

"You are living as if destined to live forever; your own frailty never occurs to you; you don't notice how much time has already passed, but squander it as though you had a full and overflowing supply - though all the while that very day which you are devoting to somebody or something may be your last. You act like mortals in all that you fear, and like immortals in all that you desire."

How should we live? It is a question we rarely ask ourselves. I think everyone should find the answer to this question for themselves.

Living

"... learning how to live takes a whole life, and, which may surprise you more, it takes a whole life to learn how to die"

"So you must not think a man has lived long because he has white hair and wrinkles: he has not lived long, just existed long."

"No one will bring back the years; no one will restore you to yourself. Life will follow the path it began to take, and will neither reverse nor check its course. It will cause no commotion to remind you of its swiftness, but glide on quietly. As it started out on its first day, so it will run on, nowhere pausing or turning aside. What will be the outcome? You have been preoccupied while life hastens on. Meanwhile death will arrive, and you have no choice in making yourself available for that."

"Call to mind what work you have achieved in such a long life; how many have plundered your life when you were unaware of your loses; how much you have lost through groundless sorrow, foolish joy, greedy desire, the seductions of society; how little of your own was left to you. You will realize that you are dying prematurely."

"Life divided into three periods; past, present and future. Of these, the present is short, the future is doubtful, the past is certain....The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow and loses today."

An excellent book for reflection on life, time and virtue from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca.

"Written as a moral essay to his friend Paulinus, Seneca's ... words still pack a powerful punch two thousand years later. With its brash rejection of materialism, conventional lifestyles and groupthink, [the book] is as relevant as ever."--Back cover.

philosophy

Philosophy

Life is long if you know how to use it. From the author of Letters From A Stoic (Epistulae Moralis), comes another brilliant, timeless guide to living well. Written as a moral essay to his friend Paulinus, Seneca's biting words still pack a powerful punch two thousand years later. With its brash rejection of materialism, conventional lifestyles and group-think, On The Shortness of Life is as relevant as ever. Seneca anticipates the modern world. It's a unique expose of how people get caught up in the rat race and how for those stuck in this mindset, enough is never enough. The 'busy' individuals of Rome Seneca makes reference to, those people who are too preoccupied with their careers and maintaining social relationships to fully examine the quality of their lives, sound a lot like ourselves. Includes biographical sketch 'Seneca The Stoic.'

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (often known simply as Seneca or Seneca the Younger); ca. 4 BC – 65 AD) was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and dramatist of the Silver Age of Latin literature. He was tutor and later advisor to emperor Nero, who later forced him to commit suicide for alleged complicity in the Pisonian conspiracy to have him assassinated.

On The Shortness of Life

On the Shortness of Life

There are both practical and psychological reasons why a colleague might try to go above you, says Adam Galinsky, a professor at Columbia Business School and coauthor of "Friend and Foe: When to Cooperate, When to Compete, and How to Succeed at Both". Practically speaking, they may want a different answer or outcome than you’ve given. Psychologically, it’s possible that they’re keen to show they have more clout or authority than you do. It could also be that they’re conflict averse and afraid to address the issue with you directly.

What The Experts Say

Webb suggests you start by considering what you actually know. You may think your coworker went over your head to spite you, but perhaps you’re misreading the situation. Look at only the facts and avoid snap judgments. For example, rather than thinking, “He completely disregarded my authority,” tell yourself, “He had a conversation with my boss about the initiative he’s working on.”

Question Your Assumption

If you don’t know all the facts of the situation – perhaps you just heard about the conversation through the office rumor mill – try to find out what really happened, says Webb. You might go to your boss and ask in a neutral way about what transpired: “Hey, I heard you and Carlos were talking about his new idea.” Take care to maintain a casual, non-accusatory tone so that your boss doesn’t think you’re trying to start a feud.

Find Out More

Ask your coworker if the two of you can talk — preferably in a private room. Keep an open mind as you enter the conversation, says Webb. “Don’t go into the conversation with the intention of sticking it to your coworker. Instead think about the importance of your working relationship.” Focus on your ultimate goal, whether it’s to restore trust or to protect your authority. And be ready to hear what he has to say about the situation and why he did what he did.

Approach Your Colleague

Begin by saying what you know in a “straightforward” way, says Galinsky. Explain why you’re disappointed, but stay away from words like “angry” or “betrayed,” Webb adds. That may be how you feel, but it’s going to put your coworker on the defensive. You might say something like: “I heard you talked to Roger about your initiative after we discussed it and that made me feel a bit concerned that we’re not communicating well.” Then ask for — and listen to — his perspective.

State Your Position 

Once you’ve shared your views with one another, decide together how to remedy the situation. “Try asking them for their thoughts first, then build on their suggestions. Research shows that people feel far more attachment to any idea that they’ve had a hand in shaping,” explains Webb.

Problem-Solve Together 

You should also discuss how you’ll handle similar situations in the future. Ideally, you and your colleague will agree that she should come directly to you next time. But if she’s not immediately on board with that plan, try to show her that going over your head is not only hurtful; it’s also ineffective, says Galinsky. Explain that you and your boss are in regular contact, so you’re going to find out if someone goes over your head. You might say, “I meet with Roger regularly to discuss our group’s priorities and he usually lets me know if he gets requests from other teams.”

Clarify The Lines Of Communication 

This breach in the chain of command may have annoyed your boss or caused her to question your ability to do your job. And, if she failed to redirect the colleague to you, you might be ticked off at her. So, once you’ve settled things with your colleague, make sure to also sit down with your manager to talk about what happened, why it happened, and how to avoid similar situations in the future. Again, lay out what you know and how it made you feel, then listen to her perspective: “I heard that Carlos talked to you about his initiative and that made me concerned that I might be out of the loop.

What to Do When a Coworker Goes Over Your Head

Communication with the world is a beautiful feeling. Communicating and finding your old classmate is also a life turning experience. Social media has made it easier. Each day new platforms are emerging for easing and sharing your moments. However, do you have any idea about your spending time on such social apps?

How Social-media Takes Your Refreshing Hobbies Away?

We can use social media for developing ourselves. Here are the issues everyone faces with the overuse of social media. *Loses the family relationship tune. When you are always spending time on social media scrolling, your mind starts taking a distance from family time.* Gets a wrong notion about life. Social media isn't a sacred place where only reliable information and knowledge get. * Your creativity grows slowly. When you read a book or observe nature, your creativity gets light. However, social media can't support your creativity in that way.* Constant concentration and attention issues.

Issues With The Overuse Of Social Media

Meditate at least 10-15 minutes a day. Meditation will calm your mind to give a clear focus on your goals. * Set a timer before logging into the social media accounts and use them within that specific period.* Have my soul time. Spending some minutes with yourself easily converts your feelings into actions. That means your productivity level goes high. Make sure you sit with yourself, talk and plan the future.* Engage yourself with other creative activities like writing, reading, drawing and clicking nature. * Turn off all the notifications from unwanted applications.

An exploration of the intersection of neurodivergence, obsession and disorderObsessive was, still is, my natural state, and I never wondered why. I didn’t mind, didn’t know that other people could feel at peace. I always felt like a raw nerve, but then, I thought that everyone did.Writer and journalist Marianne Eloise was born obsessive. What that means changes day to day, depending on what her brain latches on to: fixations with certain topics, intrusive violent thoughts, looping phrases. Some obsessions have lasted a lifetime, while others will be intense but only last a week or two.

The Book

Obsessive, Intrusive, Magical Thinking is a culmination of a life spend obsessing, offering a glimpse into Marianne’s brain, but also an insight into the lives of others like her. From death to Medusa, to Disneyland to fire, to LA to her dog, the essays explore the intersection of neurodivergence, obsession and disorder, telling the story of one life underpinned and ultimately made whole by obsession.

Marianne’s Brain

Marianne Eloise’s brain operates differently from those of “neurotypicals”. Once the “weird” child both at school and at home, she has lived in an embattled emotional state for as long as she can remember, with repeated episodes of debilitating anxiety and depression. She has also suffered from anorexia nervosa. When she was a child, few adults cared to understand what was behind her distress. Her difficulties remain complex, but her memoir rallies hope.

Her Difficulties

“Without obsession, I have nothing. It’s taken me on journeys across the world in pursuit of things that interest me, and it always wins against the things that I find hard about being alive.”Eloise, a culture writer and journalist, describes a mind that never switches off. Her looping, repetitive thoughts make for tenacious worries and all-consuming interests – as adolescence unfolds, Jim Carrey and The Twilight Zone are replaced by Noughties pop-punk.

A Culture Writer and Journalist

She divides her book into three sections, on “obsessive”, “intrusive” and “magical” thought, drawing on extensive research and interweaving personal reflections and amusing asides. Making order out of the chaos of her mind is important to her fragile sense of safety in the world, but she describes paradoxical impulses along the way: to swim in seas despite a terror of drowning, to dance at gigs despite often feeling threatened by people, lights and noise.

Order Out Of Chaos

Her ruminations cluster around specific themes: time, water, fire, nightmares, the city of Los Angeles. Through her fascination with Walt Disney it is revealed that, as a child, Disney stamped an owl to death. His life’s work perhaps sprang from the associated guilt, but Eloise – as an adult – considers Disneyland “the one place on earth everything ceased to be complicated, difficult, grown-up; everything was taken care of”. As she finds stable love with her fiancé, Karl, she also gets more respite from other fears: of her dog dying, of her body fleshing out.

Her Rumination

She processes trauma. Her mother, a mental health nurse, suffered too, with a gaze wandering far from her two daughters.Eloise made sporadic efforts to get help in the form of therapy. “It turns out, though, that if there is an irresponsible adult in your home leaving the gate open or the gas on, then it is not possible to do CBT.” It wasn’t until recently that Eloise received an autism diagnosis.

She Processes Trauma

In her late twenties now, she has also been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, nightmare disorder, dyspraxia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which affects the body’s connective tissues. “Diagnosis is a lifeline”, she writes. “It empowers me to live the way I need to, to ask for help and space.”

<ol><li>Be authentic</li><li>Help other people</li><li>Earn your way</li><li>Be physically active</li><li>Do everything with love</li><li>Be honest</li><li>Respect your beliefs</li><li>Accept your defects</li><li>Never humiliate others </li><li>Meditate</li><li>Live your passions</li><li>Connect with the people you love</li></ol>Putting these into practice will help you realize your God-given potential.

These 12 habits will assist you in being the best version of yourself:

While it can be beneficial to adapt to your environment in some situations, changing your personality to suit the situation impedes your growth and maturity. If you hide behind a mask, you will never be able to share everything you have to give. When we are authentic, we are more comfortable, secure, and respected.

1. Be authentic

When someone needs your help, be compassionate and give them a hand, whenever possible. If you cannot help them, connect them with someone who can. Daily life is full of opportunities to do this. If you do someone a favor, don’t hold it over their head, and don’t expect something in return. Do what is right, because it is right, and that’s it.

2. Help other people

Work hard and win the respect of the people around you, walking your path without stepping on anyone else. Don’t expect to receive anything without earning it. Adversity and sacrifice will make aspects of your personality shine that you might not have discovered otherwise, and will give you a feeling of achievement and self-improvement that will surprise you.

3. Earn your way

Try to incorporate movement into your daily life: <ul><li>walk to work, </li><li>take the stairs instead of the elevator, </li><li>stand up from your seat every half hour, </li><li> make plans to do more physically demanding activities with your friends. </li></ul>This will strengthen your body and will make it possible for you to live more intensely.

4. Be physically active

The love we put into our actions is what gives true meaning to what we do. If we do them with love, the smallest of our actions can become great. Love always bears fruit and strengthens us internally.

5. Do everything with love

There are also times when it is better to keep your mouth shut, but when it’s time to speak out, be honest. By being truthful, we defend what is right and reject what is wrong. Avoid getting involved with lies; one lie tends to lead to another and trap us in a web that it’s hard to escape.

6. Be honest

Being faithful to what you believe is crucial. When you act in line with your beliefs, regardless of the outcome, you will feel proud of yourself for having been faithful and coherent.

7. Respect your beliefs

We all have them, without exception. It’s always important to be humble so that we can recognize where we can change and how we can improve upon our weaknesses and defects. Humility is the first step on the path to learning and growing.

8. Accept your defects

If someone does something shameful or embarrassing, resist the temptation to say something that could hurt them, no matter how smart or fair it might appear. People might laugh because what you said was funny at that moment, but after reflecting about it, they will think less of you.

9. Never humiliate others

Begin and end each day with a few minutes of introspection. Think of those moments as a gift to yourself, that will allow you to silence the constant mental noise of the day and anchor you in the present, the only moment you can really take advantage of.

10. Meditate

When you really enjoy an activity, you lose the sense of time. Try to experience that sensation more often by doing activities that you love. They are one of the greatest sources of motivation and creativity.

11. Live your passions

Invest quality time in quality relationships. Establishing strong interpersonal relationships is comforting, it opens our mind, and it increases our life expectancy.

12. Connect with the people you love

We must seek to be the best possible version of ourselves, achieving an internal balance that is contagious, a profound state of peace that allows us to use our abilities to the maximum.

It's not enough to be ourselves; we need to practice healthy habits and virtues to really be all we can be.

12 Habits to help you be the best version of yourself

Make an effort to remember that you live today; not ancient times.In earlier ages, people had to make more split, life or death decisions about whether to engage with or avoid the unknown. Thus, their brains evolved to pay a lot more natural attention to negative and dangerous stimuli.Individuals have a degree of control over their thoughts. Make a conscious effort to spend time contemplating the positive.
