1- The emotional Base is not external

Your feelings are not someone else’s fault. You cannot ask people to know how you will react. Other people’s behavior can make you feel good or bad against their will. Everyone is responsible for controlling their own emotions, no one else is responsible but themselves. They don’t have to care.



2- Make no assumption about happiness or what creates it

Happiness is eternal. When we think about happiness, we go back to our memories of the past, which we categorize as happy. This does not mean that we should have happier memories than these memories. We can experience happiness that we have never experienced before. People with high emotional intelligence know that moving on and experiencing new things is always the only way to “true happiness”.


3- Understand that fear is a normal emotion to new thing

Fear is always normal in new experiences. If something new scares you, it does not mean that it is bad. Being reckless and being fearless are not the same thing. Fear is just our mind telling us to be alert. Fear is there so that we can be sensitive to what is happening and do things with care and control.


4- Understand that emotions are reactions, not reality

what you feel does not define the character of the situation. This is the most important stage of emotional intelligence and it is also the most difficult thing to recognize in the heat of the moment. Your feelings and the reasons for those feelings are unique to you. It is very important to understand this.


5- Don not assume that a bad feeling leads to bad life

The most important benefit of having emotional intelligence is to know that we cannot be happy all the time. Just because you are having a bad time doesn’t mean that your life will fall apart, it means that happiness is a choice. It doesn’t mean that we will always choose it. Sometimes a certain number of factors can combine to cause us to have a bad day.


6- Do not be friend easily

One of the most important things in life is to choose who you surround yourself with. To make good choices in friendships, it is very important to be aware of how other people make you feel. As we mentioned in each article, as a characteristic of emotional intelligence, this doesn’t happen overnight. It requires a process and a process.


7- Do not associate composure with emotional intelligence

Having a high emotional intelligence does not mean that you cannot lose it from time to time. A high emotional intelligence does not make you an emotionless robot. Everyone loses control from time to time. Having emotional intelligence means being aware of how you feel, being aware of why you feel the way you do and knowing how to deal with those emotions accordingly.



8- Choose your own thoughts

People with high emotional intelligence can also be described as stubborn. This is because they keep their feelings and thoughts equal. They also understand very well how other people, other factors affect their own emotions. they are selective, more selective than stubborn.

I hope this article has been of some use to you.


Thank you for reading it.
