What is would be the first step in learning emotional intelligence?
Before I answer today’s question, I want to share today’s quote which is from Daniel Goleman and it goes like this:
 "If your emotional abilities aren't in hand, if you don't have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage your distressing emotions, if you can't have empathy and have effective relationships, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far."
 Daniel Goleman
The first thing we need to is to acknowledge the power of our self-awareness, it is the cornerstone of all social and emotional intelligence. Nothing can happen without strong self-awareness; we can’t manage our own behaviour effectively, connect and communicate with our colleagues, or even build productive working relationships without self-awareness.

In this episode we are looking closer into the role emotional intelligence plays in politics.
I am answering the most common 10 questions people are not asking us, but should and the question I am answering today is:
 
How would the world be if everyone would practice EQ?
 
Before I answer today’s question, I want to share today’s quote which is from Plato and it goes like this:
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Ross Perot
Well, it probably still won’t be perfect, but everyone would work on it to become perfect.
 
By practicing EQ we would easily overcome all the instinctual behavior like anger, fear, guilt, shame, rejection and we could teach our brain to switch to compassion, enthusiasm, motivation, trust, integrity, humbleness.

034 How would the world look like if everyone would practice emotional intelligence

In this and the next episode we are looking closer into the role emotional intelligence plays in politics.
I am answering the most common 10 questions people are not asking us, but should and the question I am answering today is:
 
How can a politician be more socially responsible so that he/she can make an bigger impact in his/hers community by using strategies from EQ
 
Before I answer today’s question, I want to share today’s quote which is from Plato and it goes like this:
The first resistance to social change is to say it's not necessary.
Gloria Steinem
In my opinion social responsibility is linked to the structure of values and principles of a person, and this is what makes the person commit to his/her social mission as a political or public office.
A person in public office who does not commit to either the community (and even with the good of the whole world community) and not act and decide on the basis of the responsibility that has been granted by voters, is a person that it’s acting "stupid" as a politician, and therefore does not deserve this position because it is not able to give an adequate response to that responsibility.
 
When a politician gives signals to be making decisions from greed, from fear, from the ego or the need for power, it is time to dismiss him/her immediately because it’s for sure that the political will be making wrong decisions from inadequate emotional states and inadequate needs.

033 How can a politician be more socially responsible?

In this and the next 2 episodes we are looking closer into the role emotional intelligence plays in politics.
I am answering the most common 10 questions people are not asking us, but should and the question I am answering today is:
 
Why is it important to make good and sound decisions in politics and how can EQ help me with that? 
 
Before I answer today’s question, I want to share today’s quote which is from Plato and it goes like this:
In order to become the master, the politician poses as the servant.
Charles de Gaulle
Emotions are intelligent. Emotions are what make us human. Emotions tell us what is valuable and important to us and to others. They signal the meaning of events. 
Emotions are just as “cognitive” as other perceptions. They serve as essential guides for humans to make rational choices. Emotions are a form of thinking as well as a form of feeling. 
All thinking is infused with the intelligence of emotions. Without the guidance of emotions, one becomes irrational, detached from reality.
We now have conclusive biological evidence that decision-making is neurologically impossible without being informed by emotions. 
Contrary to the classical model, decision-making is arbitrary when it is not infused with the intelligence of emotions.
