If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to us as it is, infinite. William Blake
The ability to enjoy your life relies on learning social intelligence.? From childhood on, you need to negotiate with others to joint problem solve, create something new and share resources.
Social awareness refers to understanding and empathizing with others’ emotions and perspectives.? ??
Intelligence is when you can behave effectively in a social situation and form satisfying relationships throughout your life.???
Have you ever noticed how some people can effortlessly talk to anyone they meet, no matter how divergent their backgrounds?
Or have you seen that one person who always offends someone, no matter the topic of conversation?
?Are you aware when this may happen to you?
If you have difficult and contentious negotiation relationships, these can affect your physical health – mood, fatigue, depression and weak immune system.?
Bottom line is that your negotiations or joint decision-making partnerships excel when you can understand and manage your own emotions. And your negotiations are more satisfying when you understand others’ motivations and can engage others to help you solve your problems.? ??
Join the Social Intelligence Lab practice community to engage, practice and explore with others in both real time and at your own pace.
