It is an Intelligence (social) needed, to monitor our own and other's emotions, to chose the right emotions and to decide right thinking & respone to the situation.
Why it matters: I would like to say, as a Human we react immediately to the situation, triggered by the perception of the situation. These reactions can lead to harmful reaction by the others or may spoil relationship. Many times, we feel guilty of how we behave. To prevent such scenarios we must have EI.
EI is basically having awareness of self, regulating ourself and mastering social skills and Empathy.
This helps us to hold ourself from responding immediately. Helps us to process the information we get on any situation for a moment and then respond.
It is required because we are responsible for our feelings and the actions we do...!!
We are humans and emotions have alot in our lives. Having emotional intelligence gives you the power of ruling everybody and everythings so easy and without any difficulties as you will be so close to others.
Thanks for your good question, emotional intelligence mainly means self-control against abnormal issues.
Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to perceive, control and evaluate emotions. Some researchers suggest that emotional intelligence can be learned and strengthened, while others claim it is an inborn characteristic.
Salovey and Mayer proposed a model that identified four different factors of emotional intelligence:
1. Perceiving Emotions: The first step in understanding emotions is to accurately perceive them. In many cases, this might involve understanding nonverbal signals such as body language and facial expressions.
2. Reasoning With Emotions: The next step involves using emotions to promote thinking and cognitive activity. Emotions help prioritize what we pay attention and react to; we respond emotionally to things that garner our attention.
3. Understanding Emotions: The emotions that we perceive can carry a wide variety of meanings. If someone is expressing angry emotions, the observer must interpret the cause of their anger and what it might mean.
4. Managing Emotions: The ability to manage emotions effectively is a key part of emotional intelligence. Regulating emotions, responding appropriately and responding to the emotions of others are all important aspect of emotional management.
This is part of intelligence related to how you communicate understand and influence other people with regard to understanding their emotion body language, voice etc.
I very agreed with Mr. Ahamed Shareef
