20 Predictions for the Future of EQ

Written by Susan Dunn, MA, The EQ Coach


EQ isn’t just a “designer” fad that’s going to fade, and many are interested to see what directions it will take inrepparttar coming years. Here are some of my predictions:

1.Emotional Intelligence will become a household word. Parents will actively teach their children emotional intelligence along with their manners, chores and life skills. Children will learn to accept and welcome their emotions, talk about them, label them correctly, manage them, and choose appropriate responses. 2.Parents will demandrepparttar 128532 inclusion of an EQ program in day care, public and private schools, and universities. They will demand EQ credentials for nannies, childcare providers, youth workers, spiritual leaders, and teachers. 3.We will move beyond diversity to multiculturalism; working and living with people from different backgrounds and cultures. We will therefore have to rely more onrepparttar 128533 universal "language" of emotions to reach commonality and understand what’s going on. We will have to rely more on nonverbal communication. 70-90% of communication even between two people who share a mother language, is nonverbal. 4.One person will ask another person "How are you today?" and instead of not listening torepparttar 128534 predictable and meaningless response of "fine," they will listen carefully asrepparttar 128535 other person tells them how they are feeling emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. The person askedrepparttar 128536 question will know how he or she feels in all these areas and be able to articulate it, andrepparttar 128537 listener will understandrepparttar 128538 information and know how to use it. It will smoothrepparttar 128539 inner world for each of them, and therefore smoothrepparttar 128540 working inrepparttar 128541 outer world. 5.As globalization andrepparttar 128542 rapid exchange of masses of information continues to increase, we reach critical mass, and have to rely on our intuition and nonverbal communication skills.

6.From this massive cultural blending and exchange (culture is learned; not carved in stone) we will extractrepparttar 128543 health-promoting practices and adopt them. We will wipe out what Mother Theresa termedrepparttar 128544 worst disease on earth – “the isolation inrepparttar 128545 West.” People inrepparttar 128546 West will no longer be ashamed to “admit” they “need people”. (And we do not need people to be inrepparttar 128547 same room with us, we need emotional connection with people and healthy interdependence.) We’ll be looking at why wellness statistics in some other countries surpass ours inrepparttar 128548 US and adopting some new customs! 7.The “family” will expand. Proverbs aroundrepparttar 128549 world tell us thatrepparttar 128550 feet go more easily whererepparttar 128551 heart is. Predictions forrepparttar 128552 future are that nearly half of working adults will be both single AND over 40. Businesses will recognizerepparttar 128553 need for a more emotionally intelligent workplace, as un-paired adults working longer hours dominaterepparttar 128554 work scene, who will need more emotional and social connection atrepparttar 128555 office. Corporations will understandrepparttar 128556 benefits of establishing an emotionally intelligent culture in their office.

8.Science and Spirituality Blend. Alliances such asrepparttar 128557 workrepparttar 128558 Dalai Lama has done with brain researchers atrepparttar 128559 University of Wisconsin will be commonplace. Technology will improve and there will be more and better ways to measure and quantify data about emotions andrepparttar 128560 brain. 9.The Left andrepparttar 128561 Right will Also Meet. People will actively work to develop both their left and their right brains, andrepparttar 128562 connection betweenrepparttar 128563 two. There will be programs for children and adults available inrepparttar 128564 schools, at work, through agencies, coaches, and faith organizations that teach how to do this.

10. Intuition becomes mainstream. Becauserepparttar 128565 volume of factual information will be overwhelming, andrepparttar 128566 problems more complex, we will rely more on intuition, an EQ competency. 11.Immune deficiency diseases and stress will continue to increase, so there will be an emphasis onrepparttar 128567 wellness benefits of emotional intelligence. The so-called "negative" emotions weaken our immune system, which is our health. Therefore understanding emotions and emotional self-management is crucial. Treatingrepparttar 128568 "emotional" component of a disease or illness will be accepted; it will berepparttar 128569 norm. Medical care inrepparttar 128570 US will be moving towardrepparttar 128571 Eastern model with its emphasis on prevention. Insurance will cover EQ-type programs. “Stress management” program s will be replaced by EQ Programs. Individuals will be given a discount on their insurance for developing their EQ, just as we are now given a discount on our home insurance for installing a fire alarm, or a discount on our car insurance for taking defensive driving or having air bags. Resilience, an EQ competency isrepparttar 128572 air bag for our stress tolerance.

Improve your relationship with money

Written by Shrinivas Vaidya


Dear Internet friend. Each human being is an incredible piece of sowtware. Each one of us has been "programmed" in a certain way. This program runs our lives 24 hours a day, and will govern our entire life. But who wasrepparttar programmer? Of course you were not alone in it, it was a "joint venture" between you andrepparttar 128529 society. By society, I mean ,your parents ,friends ,teachers ,colleagues etc. Your program runs every aspect of your life, right from your physical appearance torepparttar 128530 amount of money you earn. In this article I will discuss how this program affects Your money matters. The part ofrepparttar 128531 program which decides Your financial success is called as "Money Consciousness".

In a single sentence I would say that "you will earn how much you believe you can earn." This clearly means that you have programmed yourself to earnrepparttar 128532 amount of money you are earning now. There is a code running constantly in your mind which governs your actions when you try to earn money. It is your belief system aboutrepparttar 128533 whole aspect of money which decides your financial fortune.

A person with "poor" money consciousness has an underlying emotion about money and that’s "fear”. Fear of losing money is what governs their financial ability. These people always think that there is never enough money with me, and their mind picks uprepparttar 128534 message, which reflects in outward reality. There is one more major emotion, which drives their mind. They think that earning too much money is bad. or money brings problems with it. So they never think aboutrepparttar 128535 possibilities money can bring in their lives, and accept a conservative lifestyle. Our mind is like a magnet. It will attract exactlyrepparttar 128536 same circumstances and opportunities which are in tune with what we believe to be true. So if a person believes money is bad, his mind will recreate exactlyrepparttar 128537 same situations in his real world experience which will reaffirm his belief that "money is bad."
