The Unlimited Potential Show I Relatable Self Development

You’ve heard the term IQ before, it’s a static number that doesn’t really change over time and is used as a basis of your intelligence. But IQ isn’t the only thing you need to succeed in life, in fact, we’d say that it’s not even the most important. When it comes to managing and succeeding in your life, emotional intelligence is THE skill to learn. The good news is? You can grow this skill for the rest of your life.

Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show! This week we start a new two-part series about the importance of emotional intelligence. Emotions are a part of our everyday lives, whether we acknowledge them or not. We are constantly dealing with emotional stimuli whether it’s from other people, work, or our environment. There is something that is pulling at our attention. So, what would happen if we were able to identify and manage all these emotions? In this episode, we discuss the difference between IQ and EQ and the power that emotional intelligence has to skyrocket you into success.

Join us as we talk about the four categories of emotional intelligence and how you can master each one to become a more effective communicator. You’ll learn practical tips and tricks on identifying your emotions, processing them, and making the best choice not just for you but for other people around you. We talk about moments where high EQ was fundamental in changing an environment, why you should test the limits of your emotions, and even how you can pass this vital skill onto your children.

IQ scores may boast problem-solving power, but when it comes down to your future and potential in everyday life, emotional intelligence takes the cake. So grab a fork and dig in, because this is just the beginning of unlocking your unlimited potential.
