Are you in tune with your feelings in the moment, or do your emotions confuse you and you find it hard to navigate them? Stick with me in this episode and I'll show you how to get the Emotional Awareness that you need.
Hi, this is Grant Herbert, Emotional Intelligence Speaker and Trainer of the Year and Master Coach Trainer, and this week, we're going to continue our conversation around Emotional Intelligence by answering that question, "Why am I feeling this way anyway?"
Let me take you now through five key principles that you need to understand so that you can develop this critical competency called Emotional Self-Awareness.
The first principle is to?expand your emotional vocabulary.
The second key principle is to?listen to your body.
The third principle is to?make a connection.

The fourth principle is to?recognise patterns.
The fifth principle is to?go deeper for clarity.
So, we need to challenge each of those answers that we come up with and ask,?"Well, am I actually feeling that?", or?"Is there another word that I could use to describe that?"
Well, that's it from me for another week. Join me again next week, when we continue this conversation around Emotional Intelligence and the first quadrant of Self-Awareness by taking a look at the second competency within this quadrant, Accurate Self-Assessment. Your perception is your reality, and sometimes it can be different to what other people are thinking or seeing in your behaviour. So, it's vital to be able to accurately assess your strengths and your limitations, and we'll talk about that next week.

Have an amazing week, and I look forward to working with you again next week. I'll see you then.
