“I grew up a witness” Mike Rose writes, “to the intelligence of the waitress in motion, the reflective welder, the strategy of the guy on the assembly line. This then is something I know: the thought it takes to do physical work.” In all our debates about standardized testing and the information economy, the value of learning to work and the future of liberal arts education, we may risk too narrow a view of the way the physical, the human, and the intellectual blend in all kinds of learning and in all work that matters. Mike Rose’s expansive wisdom could enlarge our civic imagination on big subjects at the heart of who we are — schooling, social class, and the deepest meaning of vocation.

    Personal intelligence – the power of personality and how it shapes our lives by John D. Mayer.
    As per John D. Mayer, “Personal Intelligence is the capacity to identify and reason about information about personality. We use this ability to recognize information about people from their appearance, possessions and behaviors and use that to label our impressions of a person and to match that impression to our knowledge of similar people. From such clues, we deduce how to behave with the person and how that person will treat us in return and we look for clues about our own selves to better understand our needs and map out our previous plans”.
    Pattern recognizing – gives us the ability to see similarities between people’s behavior and attitudes.
    Personal typing VS Stereotyping. Personal typing is well researched with different structured systems.
    Introspective – ability to enter your mind and understand who you are as a human being
    Intraspective – ability to understand other people’s dynamics (social intelligence)
    Most personal psychology tools are very useful on their base fundamentals but most of them can expounded indefinitely.
    A simple hobby or curiosity will help increase personal intelligence.

A Guide to Social Intelligence, with Catriona Oldershaw of The Insights Distillery

JOLSID.com - Emotional Intelligence is something we all hear about but most of us either don&rsquo;t have a clear understanding of it or have understood EI to be some overly exaggerated trait.
Here is the history of Emotional Intelligence. The term emotional intelligence was first used as a reference in a paper written by Michael Beldoch in 1964. The first use of the term was in Wayne Payne&rsquo;s doctoral thesis in 1985, A Study of Emotion: Developing Emotional Intelligence. It wasn&rsquo;t until 1995 that the term became widely known. The best-selling book written by Daniel Goleman, Emotional Intelligence - Why it can matter more than IQ lead to the popularity of EI.
In simple terms &ldquo;Emotional intelligence can be defined as the ability to monitor one's own and other people's emotions, to discriminate between different emotions and label them appropriately and to use emotional information to guide thinking and behaviors&rdquo;.
Currently there are 3 main models of EI.

Ability Model
Mixed Model
Trait Model

Today we will be discussing the most popular model, that&rsquo;s the Mixed Model.
Mixed Model
The 5 key components of the Mixed model of Emotional Intelligence are:

Self-awareness &ndash; the ability to know one's emotions, strengths, weaknesses, drives, values and goals and recognize their impact on others while using gut feelings to guide decisions.
Self-regulation &ndash; involves controlling or redirecting one's disruptive emotions and impulses and adapting to changing circumstances.
Social skill &ndash; managing relationships to move people in the desired direction
Empathy - considering other people's feelings especially when making decision
Motivation - being driven to achieve for the sake of achievement.

There are three different parts to our brain. The First Brain, the Emotional Brain, and the Rational Brain.
The First Brain (brain stem) is where all of our automatic responses come from, as well as where our habits are formed. This is the most basic form of our brain out of the three that we are discussing. The first brain links us to our external world through our skin, pores and nerves. It controls which impulses we recognize and which will be passed on to the two higher levels.Our habits are formed in this brain by imitation, avoidance, and repetition. Information enters this brain usually without any conscious awareness. We have the opportunity to make this information conscious and use it to our benefit, as biofeedback and hypnosis have shown us.
The Emotional Brain (limbic system) is where our &ldquo;hunches, intuitions, and gut reactions&rdquo; come from. These reactions become stronger as we move through life because we have more experiences which store more information in our limbic system. Intuition is the emotional learning we have gained over years. A 14 year olds intuition will not be as stronger as a 50 year olds because they have not experienced enough life to make connections between experiences. As we grow older, we gain more reliable emotional data that can offer us valuable clues in our life, as well as it can guide our behaviour, if we become aware its existence and learn to interpret it.
The Rational Brain (neocortex) is the part of the brain that helps us solve problems, make decisions, question things, plan, and generate new ideas; as well as assisting us with functions related to thinking and language. The rational brain and the emotional brain are connected, allowing them to influence one another. This helps provide our brain with rich data on which to draw conclusions and initiate action.
Our emotional responses have been around for centuries. They helped our ancestors with their survival responses. Emotional responses are milliseconds faster than our cognitive, or thinking responses. This could mean the split second of survival when an animal is chasing you.
The limbic, or emotional brain sends a warning of crisis before the neocortex, or rational...
