  What is EQ? In the early 1990s, Dr.John Mayer, Ph.D., and Dr.Peter Salovey, Ph.D., introduced the term “emotional intelligence” in the Journal of Personality Assessment.They used this term to describe a person's ability to understand his or her own emotions and the emotions of others and to act properly based on this understanding.Then in 1995, psychologist Daniel Goleman popularized this term with his book Emotional Intelligence:Why It Can Matter More Than IQ.

  EQ gives you a competitive advantage.Even at Bell Labs, where everyone is smart, studies find that the most respected and productive engineers are those with the special qualities of emotional intelligence quotient-it's not necessary for them to have the highest IQ.Having a high IQ may make you an excellent expert or a legal scholar, but a highly developed emotional intelligence quotient will make you a candidate(候选人)for a leader or a brilliant lawyer.EQ can make it more likely that your marriage will be successful.Lack of EQ shows why people with high IQ can be such bad pilots of their personal lives.

  The study shows that these men with high IQ also lack these emotional abilities:suffering from being criticized and misunderstood, shy and uncomfortable, emotionally stimulated(激励).Compared with those men with high IQ, these men(with high EQ)are calm and friendly, who are loyal to people and careers, have lots of sympathy with and care for others, with a rich but suitable emotional life-they're comfortable with themselves, others, and the human society they live in.

  Is your intelligence the greatest predictor of what you'll achieve in life? We have believed that IQ is the best measure of human potential for so many years.In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that isn't necessarily the casethat in fact, your EQ might be a greater predictor of success.

  High IQ may help you the father of science fiction, but it won't make you a respected person.High EQ can help you more.
