Successful People Use Emotional Intelligence to their Advantage

It Is Essential To Also Know That Ignorance Is Not Bliss

Acquire Knowledge Regarding Emotional Intelligence
It is important for you to know that you are responsible for what  you do. Most of the time many people act without this self realization, which dawns on them only when they are actually facing the consequences of their actions. Therefore it is essential to also know that


 ignorance is not bliss but it can lead you into unexpected zones, which may not be very pleasant. Approach knowledge centers and professionals with knowledge , read relevant books to acquire the knowledge you need but do not cut a sorry figure in the end saying that you did not know about the theory of action and consequences.

 Three Stages of Action

Think about the possible consequences of your action before embarking
You do not even know who all are affected by your actions and how these actions come back to you in the form of consequences of these actions. So the golden rule is to seek wisdom from any authentic source and use your own judgment to think about the possible consequences of the action that you want to take. There are three stages in which action is taken by you, the first stage is when you direct your thought towards the objective you wish to accomplish and then look at the alternative courses of actions which can help you in achieving that particular objective, the second stage is when you evaluate all these possible options on the basis of the most likely outcome each one of them is going to produce once implemented, and the third stage is to implement the chosen option on the basis of the most likely outcome that would be achieved.

Emotional Intelligence Can Be Developed

The irony is that most people , most of the time jump to the third stage without considering the first two       stages, and they implement the action of the third stage still going just the action way without thinking about
Learn the right way to take the right action
the consequences of that action, the most likely outcome of that action. The point to be noted here is not that the people jumping to the third stage do not actually jump to the third stage but they lack 
awareness of the existence of the first two stages. Thus , what is important here is that these people need to get educated about making the correct and proper use of choosing the right action. And the people who have only action orientation without any regard to the consequences, completely lack knowledge about this decision process when taking action. These people are lacking in emotional intelligence, which can be developed through gaining self awareness and  by getting trained to the right way to go about taking action, with a clear focus on the consequences

Successful People Use Emotional Intelligence to Their Advantage

If you happen to analyze a few successful people as well as a few not so successful people, you would find that the successful people are using their emotional intelligence to their advantage , whereas the not so
successful people have not been able to take advantage of this natural endowment,called emotional intelligence, lying dominant inside them. The irony continues beyond this point in the form of people failing to ascertain the consequences of their actions and taking such actions involving breach of the law or causing irreversible damage to their lives and careers by getting involved in actions with far reaching consequences sometimes leading them to severe legal penalties and imprisonment. All this happens because they lack,emotional intelligence,the awareness of the consequences of their actions.

Take The Right Action Towards Leading a Happy And Fulfilling Life

The difference lies in exposing a very large number of people to the awareness and training for developing their emotional intelligence because this can act as the one timely stitch which can save nine. At times , it can prevent most of the unwanted situations from the lives of most of the people. The challenge is to rate yourself on the development and application of emotional intelligence , this exercise may prompt you to take the right action towards leading  a happy and fulfilling life by developing your emotional intelligence.

God Bless

Achieving Personal Effectiveness through Emotional Intelligence

Choose & Act on the Most Appropriate Thoughts

Achieving effectiveness is governed by very simple thought processes. It is like choosing and acting on the most appropriate thoughts. At times you need to consciously generate these thoughts till they become


a very natural habit to you. For instance if you wish to be a good public speaker , you must learn the principles governing the discipline of public speaking, once you know these principles , you must practice them regularly, so that these principles are relegated to your memory. Now as and when an opportunity of public speaking presents itself, you must hold it and show case your talent.

The Power of Directing Thought towards Goals

The fact could be that you are scared of public speaking, but the moment you take off your mind from the thought of fearing this activity and place it on the track of learning about public speaking and practicing it. You open a world of opportunities in public speaking, this is the power of directing your thought towards anything you want to achieve.

Effectiveness is a Function of Thought at Will & Discipline

The same phenomenon is true for achieving effectiveness by focusing your thought on time management, physical fitness level, body language, communication skills, emotional intelligence, etc. therefore achieving effectiveness in any area of your life is a function of you being able to focus your mind at will on the chosen activity and the discipline to carry out the activity in line with the prescribed knowledgetenets.

Balancing Act between the Heart & the Mind

When it comes to the ability to generate thoughts at will, we are essentially dealing with the faculty of emotional intelligence. This aspect of your personality performs a balancing act between the heart & the mind, or the feelings & the logic. So having the control regarding your decision, to give precedence to feelings over logic or the other way round , would determine your success and failure achieved in life.

Emotional Intelligence - The Recipe for Success

Thus knowing that although you may be very thirsty but with the limited amount of water available to be shared with a large number of people, may make you control your desire to completely quench your thirst by taking only limited quantity of water to ensure that others present there must also get their limited share. This control over the physiological demand of the body for immediate gratification by deferring the satisfaction to a later time because of some overriding consideration for others and the etiquette you need to follow in a particular situation can be categorized as a behavior emanating from emotional intelligence. Thus setting your thoughts on the right track and backing them up with the right action is the recipe for success.

Channelize Your Energy for Achieving Better & Bigger Results

Sometimes we indulge into thought processes & related action, impacting us in the short, medium or long run, but so far as these are guided by our internal voice, they would always bring us direct fruits of our actions. This is similar to keeping on the right track, always, irrespective of what is happening around us or what is being done to us by others. Such mastery would evolve your inner strength and you would be able to channelize your energy for achieving better and bigger results in your chosen vocation.

The Rare Combination of Success, Happiness & Fulfillment

Thus, achieving effectiveness in a nut shell is a result of achieving the capability of controlling thought at will, knowing the right sources of knowledge, learning from them, practicing the art of self discipline, These work well to get you the rare combination of success, happiness & fulfillment, when you live the universal eternal truths and the divine virtuesalong with developing your internal voice as well as the, art of balancing logic and feelings called, emotional intelligence.
