IQ is the intelligence quotient. This is a quantitative assessment of the level of human intelligence relative to the average level.
EI – emotional intelligence (EQ – emotional quotient). The ability of a person to recognize emotions, intentions, motivation of other people and their own, manage emotions to solve practical problems.
I must say that I think emotional intelligence is more useful in life. It is more practical, it is responsible for our success in society to a greater extent than the intelligence quotient.
If a person has high rates of EI, it is more likely that this person will be successful in society.
After all, what is the basis of success in society? In connections with other people. And here the mind can help a little, here is important first of all our ability to operate the emotions and emotions of others.
People with high EI are able to interact effectively with others. It is the ability to correctly interpret the situation and influence it, intuitively capture what they want and what other people need, the ability to know their strengths and weaknesses, not to succumb to stress and be charming.
Agree, each of us who strive for success, would like to possess these qualities!
I have good performance and IQ, and EI. But if I had to choose, I'd prefer EI. I find it more practical in life.
What would you choose?
