Emotional intelligence is a term that we come across from time to time but don't necessarily think about daily. However, you will know it when you come across someone who is really lacking it.

Emotional intelligence/Emotional quotient (EQ) is often cited by Inc, Forbes and other business publications as a greater predictor of success than IQ. Yet the default way of thinking is that the smartest person will be the one that finds success. The good news is that EQ can be grown whereas IQ is fixed. Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships.

As your EQ grows, you will find that you are better able to interact, understand, and impact people. In this episode, we go into what Emotional Intelligence is, how to grow yours, what it will do for you, and also some key questions to help you assess yours.

We also go over emotions as a whole and why they are special and enrich life as well as how they should be managed to help you be your best. Support The Impossible Life & Get Additional Insider Content by clicking here.

"You are not born a winner. You are not born a loser. You are born a chooser." - Unknown

If you've listened to this podcast before, then you are familiar with Garrett as a Navy SEAL and will have heard many stories of his life. What few people will know is who Garrett was before the SEAL teams. So often, we think people are born great or we assume they have something we don't that enabled them to accomplish something great. We don't consciously know we're thinking this, but this subconscious belief will dictate a lot of our thoughts and cause us to miss out on the greatness available to us.

It's our hope that this episode inspires you to truly believe that anything is possible for you and to push out into the unknown and pay your price to be as great as you can be.

This episode is unlike any other we've done before in that Nick interviews Garrett about his life. In this episode, you'll hear what a strong sense of identity and belief will do for you. You'll see the patterns of small victories that set you up for greater ones in future as well as the power of realizing your dreams first in your mind before they become a reality. This episode is packed full of lessons.

This episode will give you all the practical steps and guidance for being a great friend and developing great friendships. Great relationships are the number one indicator of health and happiness according to an 80 year study done by Harvard. While our society is more "connected" than ever before, friendship is often times illusive and we see loneliness and mental health issues abound.

In this episode, we go deep into friendship and give you a template for levels of friendship so you can assess yours. We also talk about what you need to be aware of in friendships, identify how they happen by default as well as why most friendships never move beyond the casual level. We give you a practical step by step guide to developing yourself to be a great friend as well as how to identify great relationships and a filter for where to find them.

This episode is jam packed.

This episode will release on the 3rd of July when many in America will be celebrating freedom. This is a freedom that Americans have based on what people did hundreds of years before them. It is what they are born in to.

Whether you're American or not, you are born into both freedom and bondage as well. We all have a family and are the beneficiary of those that went before us. This means we have both the positive and negative consequences of the actions of our parents that we will live with and need to address. We will also pass on the same to our own children.

In this episode, we look at generational freedom and what it takes to live free. Being in bondage is the default. Default looks like substance abuse, cravings, lack of emotional control, pain, comfort, insecurity, a poverty mindset, and many other "masters" that people will serve without knowing it.

Freedom, on the other hand, is something we must fight for every day in order to pass it on to the next generation. We give 3 areas of freedom to fight for and also discuss what you must free yourself from. Don't miss it.

Navy SEALs are known and studied around the world for their elite teamwork. They are renowned for their synergy and making the work of 20 men as effective as a force many more times that.

Why do you win in life in the areas that you are winning? Most people can't answer this question. Common answers will be things like hard work or commitment, but that is not a winning philosophy. Those are just elements that it takes to win in anything. When you know why you win, you will also know how to pick the right "games" so you can always win. 

In this episode, we break down what a winning philosophy is, what most people default to, and also show you how to discover yours. The 3 key steps are:

Define what a win is
Know what you have
Know what you can't change
