Emotional Intelligence
By Nazema Parray
Emotional intelligence to a common man is something related to emotions. Their understanding to this is limited and hence they seems less intrested with the same.But experts who knows it’s importance are working continually around the globe to make people understand its power and control on human minds. Incredible work has been done so far. More knowledge on this will bring human close to their authentic self. They will interpret not only their emotional phase correctly but emotions of others around.They can develop good emotional well-being of themselves.
To me emotional intelligence is a self awareness.Its understanding of one’s own emotions the real one and not the biased one. People with higher emotional intelligence seems contented , satisfied and self aware .They are empathetic towards others .They know how to control their emotions well. Lack of emotions intelligence lead us to self doubt .We sabotage our true identity, because without the inability to understand oneself we become inevitably lost and we get stuck at wrong places.
The world is changing drastically so is changing the man. We have become impatient, impulsive, inconsistent and above all emotionally unavailable. Change is a beautiful thing if it will bring out the best it becomes destructive if happen negatively. We do not change drastically but slowly and eventually. As beautifully illustrated by Brainna Wiest “you don’t change in break throughs you change in Microshift.”Change is progressive but slow. Once you become familiar with it you embrace it. Today’s world need paradigm shift. We need to get up on our own to help community to grow in a positive manner. We need to show empathy to others. Internet has done more of damage to our young generation rather than helping. Wholly Internet cannot to be blamed it’s upon its users wheather to enjoy it’s advantages or disadvantages.
More awareness is to be provided at primary level regarding emotional intelligence. Seminars and workshops has to be organised with younger generation. Counsellor should be hired in schools and colleges. They will help them to know what they actually want. Parents should come on board with school and college to help. They should be available to their kids rather then being busy with their own problems. They are busy giving their kids luxurious life rather then being a listeners. Today parents are not available for their kids. They should help them to understand the difference between realistic and unrealistic expectations. They should stop fulfilling every demand of their children.
This way they are doing more damage to their children.
Today’s generation are not aware about what they actually want.They seem spending more time to impress people online who even doesn’t know them. They care more about convincing others that they are ok when actually they are not. Their main priority in life is to get likes and followers online even if it comes at the expense of anything horrible.They value their doubts more than their potential.They trust others rather then trusting themselves. Young generation need to come out of this trauma of emotional instability. They need better understanding of their emotions rather then anything else. Young generation need listening ears not the judgmental eyes.
This emotional intelligence is a life saving thing. It should be made compulsory in every schools and colleges. It can do wonders if understood correctly.
