EMOTIONAL KEY TO SUCCESS
Emotional intelligence is key to success in every endeavor in life?
Many people now have the keys but unfortunately cannot open the door of success. What is the missing link? Until recently, we all thought that formal education is the only way to succeed in life but we were all wrong. Many people who have no or little education are now the movers and shakers of every economy in the world. They rather employ the educated people to work for them. It is said men in suit really look successful until you find out that they work for men in T-shirts and jeans. While people with little or no education control assets and businesses of every economy, the well-educated people are employees. The aim of educated people is to climb the corporate ladder but the less educated people own the corporate ladders.
What explains this anomaly? The major factor that explains the anomaly is emotional intelligence. A comprehensive theory of emotional intelligence was proposed in 1990 by two psychologists, Peter Salovey, at Yale, and John Mayer, at the University of New Hampshire. This theory was made popular in 1995 by Daniel Goleman, an American psychologist and journalist.
Emotional intelligence starts with knowing your emotions (self-awareness), then being able to manage them (self-management or self- regulation) and using them to reach your goals (motivation). Once you are able to understand and regulate your emotions, then you will be able to understand the emotions and feelings of others (empathy) and finally be able to influence them to achieve your goals (social skills).
In many instances people who are street smart turn to do better in life than people who are book smart but lack emotional intelligence. As we know, it is not the smartest people who are most successful or the most fulfilled in life. You may know people who are academically brilliant but are socially inept and unsuccessful at work or in life in general. Intellectual ability is not enough on its own for anybody to achieve success in life. Most people are hired based on their academic qualifications and ability to pass interview but they are fired for lack of emotional intelligence.
