Why do we need emotional intelligence?

 Why do we need emotional intelligence? An expert on the subject, Daniel Golema justifies the need for emotional intelligence in this way:

"There is ample evidence that people who are emotionally literate - that is, know their emotions well and can manage them, read other people's feelings correctly and know how to relate to them appropriately - have an edge over others in all areas of life, ..."

D. Goleman also writes that such people are more satisfied with their lives. Consequently, it is worth becoming emotionally intelligent, to broaden your knowledge of emotional intelligence.

The book by D Goleman that I mention in this post is 'Emotional Intelligence'.

Dare to live. It's YOUR life.

Cosa significa questo metodo, cosa comporta?” “I am already explaining: it is possible to feel happy irrespective of other people, irrespective of the amount of accumulated goods (things), irrespective of other factors on which people make their sense of happiness dependent, it is simply possible to feel h...

A few sentences from 'Emotional Intelligence' (D. Goleman) and my commentary on them.

 On page 94 of my copy of the aforementioned book we can read (translation from Polish): "(...) subordinating emotions to chosen goals is essential for concentration of attention, self-motivation and mastery, and creative work. Emotional self-control - postponing the fulfilment of desires and suppressing urges - lies at the basis of all achievements, and the ability to put oneself into a state of 'creative rapture' enables outstanding achievements in all fields. Individuals gifted with this ability achieve great results in everything they set their minds to." Who among us would not want to be among those characterised by emotional self-control? Emotions are necessary, they are there to serve us, but - attention - we must not allow them to work against us. And this is why it is so important to REACT in an appropriate manner to the emotions that arise within us. They can be positive or negative. What emotions can we distinguish?
