Emotional intelligence is a powerful set of tools in any relationship, whether romantic, parental, or professional. Plainly stated, your emotional (intelligence) quotient (EQ) is your ability to recognize your own emotions and those of others, discern different feelings, and label them appropriately. People with a high EQ are able to use that recognition to guide how they think, speak, and behave. It’s about managing and adjusting emotions to adapt to a current situation or conversation to help you achieve your goals.
