Things You Need To Know About Emotional Intelligence by etin06(m): 3:03pm On Aug 21, 2014
What is emotional intelligence? The term is made up two words "emotional" and "intelligence".
The word "emotional" is an adjective which means something characterized by emotional or determined by emotional rather than reason. From the definition the big question is what is emotion?
Emotion is a person's internal state of being and involuntry physiological response to an object or a situation,based on or tied to physical state and sensory data
Intelligence is a noun which means capacity of mind especially to understand principles, truths, facts or meanings, acquire knowledge and apply it to practice,the ability to learn and comprehend.
Emotional intelligence is the ability for us to be able to make wise and informed decisions about our relationships or emotional life that is devoid of sentiments,biasness or prejudice.
We all need emotional intelligence to know when to call it quit in a relationship,to be able to choose the type of company we keep,to know certain things that cannot change about human beings( for those who have the idea to change their spouse)
For example i met a girl who have been dating a guy for 7yrs and she Claimed she doesn't have feeling for the guy anymore due to the emotional torture she under went in the guy's hand but she is afraid of quitting because she doesn't want to hurt the guy and ptobably herself as well. She said she cant marry the guy as it stands now what i see in this case is self deceit and postponing the evil day because that relationship is surely heading for the rocks.
Emotional intelligence opens out eyes to many things in a relationship that would have been blinded by love or lust under normal circumstances.
Emotional intelligence enables us to carefully study the behaviour and attitude of our partners and ascertain if such behaviour and attitude reflect the inner feelings of our partners or if they are mere circumstantial or chance factor. For simplicity sake behaviour is the way we do things while attitude is the way and manner in which we react to things
Emotional intelligence gives us guidelines on the type of people to enter into a relationship with and ensure that such relationship is not premised on self pity or material benefit or gains because any relationship built on these is surely heading for the rocks, as people in the legal profession we say you cannot build something on top of nothing and expect it to stand.

In summary, being emotionally intelligent has to do with your ability to perceive, understand, express and regulate your emotions.

Do you know the definition of help? - I doubt
Go back and check your input after getting the meaning of help straight.
