Defining Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence (EI) is not just a buzzword for 'being nice'. No, no, no. It's actually a set of skills that help you navigate the treacherous waters of human relationships. Think of it like being a ninja, but instead of throwing stars, you're tossing empathy and self-awareness around like it's nobody's business.

To define EI, we need to break it down into its constituent parts: self-awareness, social skills, and motivation. Self-awareness is like being a master of your own domain, but not in a 'I'm a master of my own domain' kind of way. More like being aware of your own emotions and biases.

Now, social skills are like being the life of the party, but not in a 'I'm the life of the party' kind of way. More like being able to read between the lines and know when to pour the drinks. And motivation? That's like having a fire in your belly, but not the kind that burns down the kitchen.
