What is Emotional Intelligence?
Empathy
- Practice being more curious about people.
- Focus on similarities rather than differences.
- Put yourself in someone’s shoes.
- Listen, but also share.
Self Management
1. Embrace Your Strengths
Self-managers understand their strengths and play to them. Reflect on what you do best and how you do it. For example, it can be helpful to identify your skills when working in teams. Being good at keeping your group on task during a project is a valuable strength. Recognizing this ability is important. Keeping your group focused requires skills. These are the same skills needed to keep yourself on track to reaching your goals. Identifying your strengths will allow you to apply them to your personal goals and relationships.
Personal Awareness
- Keep a daily journal.

- Identify your values.
- Practice gratitude.
- Examine your knee-jerk emotional reactions.
- Practice mindfulness meditation.
Self Regulation
People who are self-regulated lead with integrity. They are good role models, they practice what they preach, and they create trusting environments. They do the right thing for the right reasons, even when it means they don’t take the easiest option.
Motivation
- Regularly review your goals and progress.
- Continue to set new goals.
- Keep the momentum up.
- Find mentors, for example, someone you look up to who is experienced in the habit you want to change.
