What is Intelligence?
Emotion + Intelligence = Emotional Intelligence
Emotion is defined as a complex state of feeling that results in physical and psychological changes that influence thought and behavior.
As emotion is an important aspect of one’s’ life and its disturbance creates fears, worries, anxieties, annoyance, anger, resentment and irritability and makes it hard to achieve the desired goal.
There is an intelligence based on emotion, and people who have this capacity are less depressed, healthier, more enjoyable, and have better relationships
Emotional Intelligence A form of social intelligence that involves the
ability to monitor one’s own and others’ feelings and emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use this information to guide one’s thinking and action.

What is the Difference between IQ & EQ?
IQ ensures your success in school EQ ensures your success in life Suppose you find out about a problem at your office. You
know the facts and the reason behind the failure. That is your IQ
When you use these to motivate your employees, that’s your EQ.
If you know the facts, but are unable to empathize with your employees, berate and de motivate them, you have a low EQ.
When you try to convince someone by facts alone, it shows your IQ, but when you appeal to his emotions and reason together with the use of facts, that’s your EQ!

is central to good teachingTeachers need to value students, tune into them, show
them empathy and communicate very positively with them
