Benefits of High EQ

High EQ skills in your personal/work life can allow you to:            Have a difference of opinion and still communicate in affirming ways  that minimize conflict           Build and maintain stable, rewarding, interpersonal relationships           Reduce negative stress while increasing your health, happiness, success, and maybe even your potential longevity           Prevent or reduce the risk of conflict in almost any venue—home, school, club, church, work, recreation—and conflict is expensive in terms of both physical and mental health to say nothing of increased stress           Share your brain’s opinion as honestly and graciously as possible, but also to remain relatively indifferent as to whether your opinion is accepted. This helps you avoid badgering others to embrace your perspective.
