As we all know, the concept of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games is "Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics and People’s Olympics." This concept includes three themes. Among them "Green Olympics" embraces the essence of the 3,000-year long Chinese philosophy, namely harmony and unity of nature and human existence.

On the World Environment Day in 2003, BOCOG(Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Games)began the Green Office Project. It covers such areas as saving energy and water, trash classification, and use of office equipment, paper recycling, paperless office work and the environmentally friendly behaviors of staff.

On September 24, 2005, the logo of the Green Olympics was shown at the Beijing Youth Palace. The logo uses a form of the traditional handwriting. It consists of the crown of a tree and the shape of a human being that are used to create the form of a large tree reaching the sky. The image represents harmony and unity between human beings and nature. Just like swinging colored strips that surround and cross each other, the green lines form a crown of a tree and recall flowers in full bloom, expressing the sustainable(可持续的)development of environmental protection.

No matter when it is, we need green space. Let’s participate in green actions, such as beautifying the environment, protecting the environment and saving resources. Let’s carry the theme of Green Olympics through to the end.

EQ has something to do with your understanding of emotions. It refers to people’s awareness, management and expression of emotions. EQ plays an important role in success. If you are not satisfied with your EQ, you can use the following five ways to improve it.

Know your own emotions－Recognise and name the emotions you feel; understand why you feel them; distinguish between feelings and actions and tell yourself what you are feeling.

Motivate yourself－You need to consider how to control your feelings productively. Practise some emotional self-control and delay satisfaction. A study found that people who delayed satisfaction were more successful later in life－as measured by a lot of factors including happiness, income and job satisfaction－than those who did not do that. You need to find a balance of emotions and motivate yourself to do something about it.

Recognise emotions in others－The ability of listening to another person’s opinions is a skill that effective managers have. Emotionally intelligent persons are also sensitive to other people’s feelings and listen to others well.

Manage your emotions－Accept your feelings, but find a balance between oversensitivity and emotional suppression(抑制). When you are angry or unhappy, you need to find a way to get out of the mood. It is healthy to express your emotions, rather than keeping them hidden.

Handle relationships－Applying conflict management skills instead of ignoring conflicts and being considerate and cooperative are part of controlling relationships. Communication skills are essential to healthy relationships.
