Our emotions are not the result of external forces, rather a conscious reaction to life's circumstances. Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize, manage and understand our emotions and the emotions of those around us. Cultivating the ability to control our thoughts and feelings is done by simply coming to a quiet awareness of them, through techniques like meditation, where the mind is silenced and not flooded or overwhelmed.

• Our emotions are simply our own
reactions to a given situation
and not the doing of some
external forces.
• We essentially need to stop
playing victim and begin to take
responsibility for how we feel.
• The ability to identify and
manage our own emotions and
to understand the emotions of
people around us is emotional
intelligence.

The first two stages have to
do with understanding our
behavior and ourselves. The
last two stages underline the
importance of understanding
others and their behavior.
This intelligence
follows four stages:
Self Awareness

Success does not create
happiness and love in life!
There are many
successful people, given
that our idea of success
is often determined in
monitory terms, who
lack love and are not
happy at all.
So if success does not
create happiness and
love, then what
does?....Self awareness!

At the core of emotional intelligence is self-awareness.
Adam smith once said that, "The first thing
you have to know is yourself. A man who
knows himself can step outside himself and
watch his own reactions like an observer."
At the core of knowing 'thyself' is taking
responsibility for all that you are and so if
success does not create love and happiness
in your life, then being responsible for your
own love and happiness along emotional
intelligence does.

What does it mean to be self-aware?
• To be self-aware simply is
to be conscious of your
thoughts, attitudes, behav
ior and emotions.
• To have a clear
understanding of all that
makes you who you are
and to be able to manage
and control those feelings.

There is a rather simple way of
managing these emotions.
In a world system where
every individual is over
stimulated with thousands
of bits of information
flooding the mind, a path to
gaining control over the
mind is simply to come to a
space of feeling safe and
relaxed.

The concept of meditation, also known
by many adjectives like
contemplation, introspection, ruminati
on or reflection, is simply bringing the
mind to a relaxed altered state of
awareness where things appear to
make sense, where the mind is no
longer flooded but is calm and
observant of the very thoughts and
emotions that are otherwise is
overwhelming.
To any form of meditation
there are three common
signals to the brain :
1) Close the eyes,
1) Focus on slow deep
breaths
2) Relax all muscle tension
in the body.
With doing this comes a
profound realization that
one is responsible and has
conscious control over his
thoughts and feelings.

If we are responsible for how we
feel, then why do we feel hurt?
Blaming others for hurting us is
simply like blaming someone for
poking you in a place that was
already bruised. It is not the poking
alone that hurt, but it is simply
poking at the bruise that hurts.
Similarly, all of us are emotionally bruised as a result of our past
circumstances, and when people poke at those places, we can either
continue blaming the person saying they hurt us, or continue to get
hurt on the same bruise, or just heal the bruise instead.

Healing the bruise
instead is taking
responsibility for how
you feel and dropping
the idea that other
people are responsible
for your love and
happiness.
In conclusion, to be
emotionally intelligent is to
be self-aware, empowering
ourselves and owning the
responsibility for our own
feelings of love and
happiness instead of
playing constant victim to
the world outside us.
Therefore, being emotionally intelligent will reveal to you real
peace and happiness, as long as you choose to create it, because
how you feel is how you decide to feel.
