The key to lovin’ your life lies in something surprising: an energizing mental reset you can do in three steps. Get ready to rock your 9-to-5.
1 Amp Your EQ
There’s IQ, then there’s EQ, or emotional intelligence, aka the way you recognize, understand, and handle your feelings and those of the people around you. It not only helps you manage your own behavior more effectively but also aids you in dealing with heightened emotions from colleagues.
Research shows that a high EQ can lead to better job satisfaction and performance. It forges more positive relationships, whether you’re running a big team or fetching coffee. Having a stellar EQ also means being constructive, trustworthy, compassionate, and focused—all qualities anyone would want in a totally competent coworker, says Angela Bradley, a psychologist in Melbourne, Australia.
The best news: EQ can be taught and developed, meaning you can boost yours with a bit of practice. Why not start right now?
