Emotional Quotient or Intelligent quotient

Emotional Quotient (E.Q.) related with the level of emotional intelligence (E.I.). .

Emotional Intelligence is synonymous with the emotional leadership.

check out my new website: www.yadavruchi.com



You  will be surprised it is not your I.Q. which is more important for your mental well being  rather it is you E.Q. This term became a popular word when Daniel Golman  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Goleman ) wrote the book on ‘Emotional Quotient-why it matters more than IQ’.

I have heard many people bragging about their I.Q. but when they get work deadlines or any sort of pressure/crisis in the life, they easily crack under pressure. These days stress is a major reason when it comes to mental health. Some experts are of opinion that these days stress level of an average person is similar to the stress level of schizophrenic patient in early 20th century. Still, no one talks about how to handle stress? How to be more resilient? How can we excel in handling stress and work in a healthy way? How can we be in control of our emotions and not emotions controlling us and drive us crazy?



According to some experts in Psychology higher Emotional Intelligence is positively correlated with:

  1. Self-compassion: A person who has a better understanding of himself is more likely to make a conscious decision considering both the emotions and practicality of a situation.
  2. Empathy: Who can acknowledge how the person feels, showing gratitude and support. It is a skill set which only few have.
  3. Relationships: In any relationship, a person with more emotional intelligence will be able to decipher and understand better about other person and thereby contributing more to a relationship.
  4. Resilience: be it an adult or a child who is better in receiving criticism, not afraid to get up once more after facing a failure, showing more perseverance is obviously going to go very far in life.
  5. Psychological well-being: Better emotional intelligence is directly proportional with good self-esteem, satisfaction in life.


How you define Emotional Intelligence: 

E.I. can be explained in simple terms as how much an individual is capable of recognize their own emotions and others, can differentiate between different feelings and label them appropriately, use that information to guide thinking and behavior, and manage and/or adjust emotions to environments or carry out one's goals.

So, my question is for you and for your children:


''Are you only concerned about your grades or also the emotions and the factors that guide them. If you think about it in great detail, then no one can stop you from achieving greatness you have in you!''




I keep my blog posts short and sweet to read, so in upcoming blog post I will be writing about how to become a highly emotional intelligent person.

Stay tuned for my next blog post ðŸ˜Š

TIME is Name of My God

  I get most of my ideas while I am jogging or sipping an evening tea or reading my favorite book. Those ideas seem worthy enough to solve most of the problems in the universe, but they seem like hanging from a fine thread of hope after endorphins wear off. Which made me believe that all our world problems could be solved if, everyone was a jogger or a reader. This won’t be another post which will describe how we can do unsurmountable things in life or how you can be a millionaire in short span of time rather it is about something which we all experience but choose to ignore like our brain ignores our nose all the time. This entity is not a living entity still I consider it as the most powerful one. Some physicist says, in space it does not exist, it is merely an observation. But still, most of our lives revolves around it and you will be surprised to know that most people die because they feel they cannot control it. In my opinion, after reading this post, you will agree with me o...

People Grow Old, Birth-days Remain Same

‘' No one knows when old age begins ’’ the quote I read somewhere while preparing for my undergraduate exams to become a doctor. Now years have passed, I have grown old and I still remember this line in my head. 'If we take a moment and observe other species like monkeys, birds, cows, etc. then you will see their younger generation is quite playful and curious and as they get older they learned to protect themselves, feed and explore but with some caution and then die due to old age. There is not much of a difference between one old lion from second old lion in terms of experience and age. To be honest all animals except humans (here I am not considering our ancestors like the chimpanzee, etc. because that will be totally out of context.) grow old in same way as their fellow animals. It is not like we can say that one lion was cool as he did something unusual in terms of experience which his fellow lion could not do before he died (unless kep...

Is Foreplay the Missing Part in your Relationship?

  The other day, I was reading a paper on mental disorders, and it explained how coming decade we will be seeing an epidemic of medical health disorders. I believe, in terms of mental health what we are facing today is only a tip of an iceberg.  To understand the basics of this iceberg, we need to have a closer look. How do you define a RELATIONSHIP? In simple words ‘the way in which one or more objects or people are connected, or the state of being connected.’  Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest or any other similar social media is showing off so many great relationships and yet we have so many people living with mental disorders , yet we are not able to connect with people who die of loneliness or lack of relationship, yet we are not able to raise children who can empathize, so what the hell is going on with so-called relations...
