Emotions Get The Best Of You? ?‍♂️

???? ??????? has worn many hats, from emotional intelligence expert and award-winning marketing guru to acclaimed storyteller and self-proclaimed LinkedIn nerd. His role as a former meeting professional and miracle maker has afforded him a unique perspective into the industry and the stress planners face daily.

Studies have shown that 58% of performance is attributed to emotional intelligence–– your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others and use that awareness to manage your emotions and behavior. Not surprisingly, people with high emotional intelligence rate higher on measures of stress management, leadership, and interpersonal skills. Listen in as Rich dives into emotional intelligence and why it is a critical skill that needs attention.

Insights worth knowing:

? Emotional intelligence means self-awareness (what are you feeling?) and self-management (what are you doing with that feeling?)

? Social media can be detrimental to your emotional intelligence, addictive, and self-destructive. Are you spending time with the wrong apps?

? When you’re feeling bombarded, go back to your game plan. Focus on the task at hand. Breathe deep before talking or acting to ensure you react calmly.

? Practice self-care. Do little things that make a big difference. Add music to your day. Exercise/meditate daily. Don’t overschedule.

? Use social media wisely. The journey of self-identification and self-happiness will never lead to fulfillment if you’re chasing unrealistic aspirations.

? Those who blend self-vulnerability with their business and personal brand online connect with more people. Authenticity is everything.
