Poisoneyes: It’s been a long time I didn’t take any chances in checking through my
Emotional Intelligence level. Recently I was told by one of my professor who knew about my EQ (Emotional Quotient) & IQ (Intelligence Quotient) range. Well, I wasn’t expecting much about it because I knew that my IQ range wasn’t that fantastic after all. So, to my astonishment this professor by the name of Prof. Dr. Sir Norhisham Wahab told me about the things I love to do. Basically whatever he’ve been telling me all this while was all true. I love drawings, designing, writing, reading and all many stuff which uses the right brain. That’s me anyway. So, I was shocked when Prof. Dr. Sir Norhisam knew about my hobby and interest. Wow! This is amazing!! And guess what? He even said that my most suitable colour for myself is Pink! Oh dear… Pink has been my most detest colours among all. I’m not sure why? But that’s the fact. He even told me to use a lot of Pink rather than Black (this is my favourite colour, how can he say that…)
But then, after explaining about the meaning of each colour, I started to realise something which is truthful. Pink helps to control my emotional well being. He even said that I used to be so emotional and started to listen to all kinds of emotional song. This is true. Very true indeed. So, I would like to share with you the experience being tested in knowing about my EQ (Emotional Quotient range). From what I knew, people always keep saying about having an high IQ level will help you succeed in whatever you do. But that’s not true!! That was an old story ok. We’ve been brainwash by all kind of wrong information. No wonder I keep on seeing people with high IQ level but missing most of their EQ range.
You should know what does the expert says about it. Open your eyes wider this time and don’t be too arrogant saying that having a high level of IQ, you’re smarter than anyone does.
Julie B. Thibodeaux, M.C.P. and D. Stephenson Bond, L.M.H.C says: Is your
intellectual intelligence the greatest predictor of what you�ll accomplish in life?
We have been conditioned to believe that IQ is the best measure of human potential. In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that this isn’t necessarily the case — that in actuality, your emotional intelligence quotient (EQ) might be a greater predictor of success.
What is emotional intelligence? In the early 1990s, Dr. John Mayer, Ph.D., and Dr. Peter Salovey, Ph.D., introduced the term “emotional intelligence” in the Journal of Personality Assessment. They used this term to describe a person’s ability to understand his or her own emotions and the emotions of others and to act appropriately based on this understanding. Then in 1995, psychologist Daniel Goleman popularized this term with his book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. Read the rest of this entry »
