Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence, as described by Daniel Goleman in his book "Emotional Intelligence," is the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others. According to Goleman, emotional intelligence is important because it plays a key role in many areas of life, including personal relationships, academic and career success, and overall well-being. It allows individuals to communicate effectively, empathize with others, and resolve conflicts in a constructive manner. In addition, research has shown that individuals with high emotional intelligence are more likely to be successful in leadership roles and have greater job satisfaction.

Emotional intelligence is crucial in relationships because it allows individuals to communicate effectively and understand their own and others' emotions. People with high emotional intelligence are better able to identify and manage their own emotions and the emotions of others, which can improve the quality of their relationships. They are able to maintain strong connections with friends, family members, and romantic partners, as well as navigate conflicts in a healthy and productive way. Additionally, individuals with high emotional intelligence are often better at expressing empathy, compassion, and understanding, which can foster deeper emotional bonds and greater intimacy in relationships.

In the workplace, emotional intelligence is important because it can improve communication, increase empathy, and help build stronger relationships with colleagues, leading to a more positive and productive work environment. Additionally, individuals with high emotional intelligence are often better at conflict resolution, decision-making, and leadership, making them valuable assets to their organizations.

Nothing stopped when she left the world. I am sitting at the exact same place where she spent her last days. Today, I cannot find any trace of her here except my memory of seeing her here. When she left, we cried. Everyone had tears in their eyes, but after some time, everyone at home had something to do, i.e. calling relatives to inform them about the death, clearing the space at home to arrange for the guests who were to arrive shortly, clearing the room to put the dead body for the night and to check the food in the kitchen for the guests. Tears were wiped shortly because there was no room for them. Life continued right after she took her last breath. Nothing changed in the world apparently, especially from a distance. If someone new to watch the surrounding of this house after a few hours, that person would probably not know that we are mourning because we are not given the time to mourn. Perhaps no one is given the time to mourn because life never stops for anyone. You have thousa

  What really is expected of globalization is the collective cooperation of large groups of people and having intertwined lives, but liberalism being the byproduct of globalization along with extremely soaring competition, has resulted in the acceleration of individualism. Liberalism gives you freedom of choice and being in collective societies; people tend to compromise on their own dreams at times to think about the collective future of their clan or family. At the same time, extreme competition makes people think about their personal hard work and then the reward they are going to get out of it. It leads to the increase in an individualistic society where people prefer to live on their own and do not want to bother others. This wave has been very evident in the West for half a century, but it is now making its way into the Eastern societies, where there have been strong cultural values and religious influence. The joint family system is not a preferable mode of living for the millen
