Nowadays, you find references to emotional intelligence everywhere, along with advice as to how sharpening your Emotional Quotient can dramatically increase your chances of success.

But there’s only one question:

Basically, emotional intelligence is the ability to identify, understand, and effectively manage emotions–both your own and those of others.

To understand further, it’s helpful to break it down into four elements of emotional intelligence or general abilities:

00:00 What is Emotional Intelligence?

Self-awareness includes the ability to recognize your emotional tendencies, strengths, and weaknesses.
Self-management is the ability to manage emotions in a way that allows you to accomplish a task, reach a goal, or provide a benefit. It includes the quality of self-control, which is the ability to control your emotional reactions.
Social awareness is the ability to accurately perceive the feelings of others and understand how those feelings influence behavior. It helps you understand the role emotions play in your relationships and social regulation.
Relationship management is the ability to get the most out of your connections with others.

Now you know what are the four components of emotional intelligence. BUT:

Each of the four components of emotional intelligence is interconnected and naturally complements the others; however, one isn’t always dependent on another.
