What Are Some Good Daily Habits to Increase One's Social Intelligence?

Social intelligence requires constantly balancing mind and heart, increasing and growing them both in the direction of the benefit of others.

This emergence from ourselves toward others leads us to start feeling other people, which is key to truly achieving higher levels of genuine success, happiness, and prosperity in life. We then start feeling how we can benefit others. We do not enter into such interactions in a crude way, but instead, we attract others through the way we relate to them. It helps us form bonds. We can then measure the extent of our life’s success by the number of such positive connections we can create around ourselves.

Therefore, good daily habits to increase our social intelligence are first and foremost built upon our intent to benefit others, to act out of their best interest. It requires exercising a feeling in others that it is good to be around us, that they do not occupy the space around us, but that there is enough space for everyone.

We then never attack or harm others. We become humble. We are not crude in our spirits. With the knowledge of what is good for others, we try to do good to them. And we leave everyone with the impression that it is good to be around us.

In addition, with a high social intelligence, we gain the ability to be a positive example to others for how to live life in a positive, harmonious, and peaceful manner, without pressure or obligations, and we try to help, support, and encourage them wherever possible.

Such an approach then becomes our definition of success in life, i.e., the fact that we can help others view and approach life in that kind of way. It is an understanding that positively connecting with others, caring about them and trying to help them, is best for humanity and nature. By helping humanity become more rounded, more positively interconnected in a reciprocal manner, we promote humanity toward the general nature where the inanimate, vegetative, and animate degrees—and now humans as well—enter into a positive bond, and ultimately, the sensation of eternity and perfection. We then live our lives with the feeling that we are playing our role in facilitating humanity’s correction and that we complete nature.
