Emotionally Intelligent leaders must be careful not to condone violence as a substitution for problem-solving.
Karmic justice is often thought of in times like these as a suitable way to explain away impulsive, misdirected anger or resentment.
The path to solving such a multifaceted problem lies not in reactionary efforts but in careful response that requires education and dialogue with a group of dedicated advocates willing to work toward a common goal. It is how every real and lasting change in civil and or social justice last

If the world seems chaotic, and it is making you want to withdraw because you are feeling like you can not deal with all that is wrong
It may be Empathic Distress
But emotional intelligence could offer some way forward
The Personal Improvement Plan (PIP) is never welcome as it strikes at the heart of anyone's ego or sense of good work.
It is so important that this be done the right way with both employee and employer playing a role so that there is a positive outcome on the individual and work culture
We need to do this better and that means training and practice also trust that you have the best intentions

The common excuses for men not embracing mental health conversations no longer justify not seeking help. Today's emotional climate requires men to have good emotional skills to navigate the life today.
When someone says "I was not raised in a house that talked of emotions" or any other reasons that men do not search out mental health..... I am always troubled. Men continue to use the same reasons for not wanting to be uncomfortable with the topic of feelings, stress, and worry. Yet it is a universal struggle that we feel daily
It is our responsibility as men to find and invest in those relationships that will help us through the hard times. No excuses

GREAT OPTIONS FOR DUDES AND MENTAL HEALTH
Much of my work is with people who have to make difficult decisions in their company, business or personal life! They want to know how to make the best decision!
How does this relate to the Emotional Intelligent leader?
Most leaders with Emotional Intelligence expect some decisions to be difficult. They are willing to be uncomfortable. It is likely that they have experienced risk, luck, and failure
They are more comfortable with being uncomfortable
I mention the book The Lean Startup by Eric Ries

Yeah, I spend my days thinking about how emotional Intelligence can help you be successful at business and career achievement. I have always maintained that a person who has good EQ performs better in their social and romantic relationships and has lower stress. so really EQ helps in every aspect of life

Hold My Soft Drink"
Listen to this episode to see if I passed the test, and more importantly, would you be able to pass the test?

You are probably not going to see these words a lot in podcasts about EQ. I believe that when you use them, its a sign that you are willing to display that you are Emotionally Intelligent in a way that really matters.
When these three words are used it changes the motion of the conversation, shifts power, and allows space for others to be useful. But we have to be willing to challenge the parts of us that value control and command attention to let this happen.

It does not happen often, but a few weeks ago, I had one of those moments where I thought.
"What the hell Am I doing all of this for anyway?
What happens if it all goes wrong?
What was I thinking?
I was quickly saved from this downward spiral as I reached out to a friend to help me gain perspective.
WE CAN ONLY BE AS EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT AS THOSE WE SURROUND OURSELVES WITH

This week was reminder of how great it is to just talk with other business owners and entrepreneurs outside of what you are doing. We are practicing emotional Intelligence when we not only relate but share with others like us what we have in common and how we struggle. THEN GUESS WHAT? THey share back, and we are reminded that we are humans who struggle together
I frequent these businesses and use them for myself so I know they will be good to you

It seems like I am always in a race for time. As I read The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, I was surprised by how much I resist the idea of me owning time and using it versus not having enough.
I know that the things I resist are often what I am weak in. So let us test it and ask that you do it as well.

In February, I attended an entrepreneurial retreat focused on the mindset and implementation of significant changes to their ways of doing business. Some of us even changed professional directions to accomplish to gain personal fulfillment.
This group of hand-selected, highly motivated humans shared what brought them to this point in their businesses and their lives Here are some distinctions that I think are valuable. All participants:

- Had a recent misfortune in their life that caused them to reevaluate their life and work
-. Are moving into the business or entrepreneurial space
- Viewed as suspect from others in their profession for trying to incorporate business and entrepreneurial skills into the helping profession.
- Expressed gratefulness for being with a group of like-minded individuals at this retreat.
- Voiced great importance on being able to visualize, manifest and remain optimistic of results
-Embraced an abundance (Not scarcity) mindset and believed in sharing openly all they know
Books suggested That are crucial to unblocking old negative programming of the mind

Since childhood, I have been able to connect with people quickly I rarely feel out of my element and fit into most social situations. What I didn't realize then was that I was using the skills of Emotional Intelligence to connect, build, and sustain relationships.
Today's episode is about recognizing the difference between Person vs. People. I explain how this can be used to focus your relationships through Emotional Intelligence.

Emotional Intelligence is about RELATIONSHIPS
An interpersonal relationship is one of the five pillars of the Emotional Intelligence model (Bar-on 1997). Without the ability to seek out and start and maintain personal relationships, there is no EQ. REMEMBER when you were in school and sat at a particular table? Did you ever wish to be invited into groups or tables? We are not far removed from this need to be included even in our adulthood.
Inclusivity is the key!

Empathy is one of the most talked about subjects within Emotional Intelligence.
How do we get to Empathy? One does not just arrive at Empathy. There are levels of deeper communication. Even if this is a short encounter, the relationship can still be meaningful.
The secret here is active listening.
Here is an example of levels of communication. The further you move down, the greater the use of your Emotional Intelligence and likelihood of creating positive relationships.
Hearing You hear sounds.
Listening Something you hear has your attention, and you begin to tune in and pay attention.
Understanding cognitively, you are putting it all together
Empathy Making a genuine connection with someone on a level that you both feel
Compassion The connection is so genuine it moves you to action.

It is easy to get lost in concepts and believe that we are mastering a high level of leadership without going far into our emotional motivations and worldview. I propose every leader is on a spectrum of Philosophy and Psychology within leadership. I ask every leader to take inventory of how one's philosophy affects the way we lead.
