There are many individuals who confuse the terms emotional scientist and emotional judge, even though the two describe very different traits: while being an emotional scientist implies having empathy and natural curiosity, being an emotional judge means that you always evaluate the things from your own perspective and you firmly believe that you alone have all the answers.

Emotional Intelligence( EQ/EI)
Is the measure of an individual’s abilities to recognise and manage their emotions, and the emotions of other people, both individually and in groups.
Benefits of a higher EQ
- Ease in forming and maintaining interpersonal relationships and in ‘fitting in’ to group situations.
- A better understanding one's own psychological state, which can include managing stress effectively and being less likely to suffer from depression.
IQ and EQ
There is no correlation between IQ and EQ scores.
IQ has no connection with how people understand and deal with their emotions and the emotions of others (EQ).
You simply can’t predict emotional intelligence based on how smart someone is.
