1. They Don't Let Their Emotions
Control Them.

Though they feel and understand


their emotions, they do not let
them lead them.

They know that expressing one's


feelings constructively is as
healthy as expressing one's
feelings negatively.
2. They Don't Take Things Too
Personally.

When we take things personally,


we are constantly offended.

Even in difficult circumstances,


they remain objective,
understanding that it's not always
about them.
3. They Don't Dwell On The Past.

There can be no rewriting of the


past.

Rather than dwelling on what


happened in the past, they focus
on the present and the future.
4. They Don't Make Hasty
Decisions.

When you make a hasty


decision, you are usually making
a decision based on your
emotions.

Prior to making a decision, they


consider all options and pause
before taking a final decision.
5. They Don’t Avoid Difficult
Conversations.

A person who is emotionally


intelligent sometimes knows
that the only way out of a
situation is through it.

They know that running from


conversations doesn’t work and
that open dialogue is essential
for building strong relationships.
6. They Don’t Jump To
Conclusions.

When something is concluded


without enough facts, it means
that emotion played a significant
role in the decision.

As a result, they form an opinion


or make a judgment based on an
objective look at all angles
before coming to a conclusion.
7. They Don’t Engage In Gossip.

The act of gossip is detrimental


to both those who gossip and
those who are gossiped about.

It is critical to them that others'


privacy be protected, and they
will only share positive things
about them with other people.
8. They Don't Blame Others.

When it comes to losing


credibility and authority, blaming
others will always be the fastest
way.

Rather than blaming someone


else for their mistakes and
abdicating responsibility for their
actions, they acknowledge and
own their mistakes.
9. They Don't Shy Away From
Conflict Resolution.

In the same way that


uncomfortable conversations
are part of life, conflicts are as
well.

They understand that some


degree of constructive
disagreement is healthy for
progress and are willing to work
through differences.
10. They Don't Put Others Down.

Putting others down is a high-


risk, low-reward activity.

They recognize that building


others up is the quickest way to
improve the world and build
lasting connections.
11. They Don’t Let Fear Guide
Their Decisions.

We should honor fear, but not


always obey it.

Rather than acting based on


fear, they take a logical
approach, weighing all factors
before making any long-term
decisions.
12. They Don’t Ruminate On
Negative Thoughts.

You can choose how you


respond to negative thoughts.

Instead of dwelling on self-doubt


or pessimism, they identify these
unhelpful thought patterns and
find constructive ways to
channel their energy.
13. They Don't Deny Their
Feelings.

The feelings we experience are


signals and feedback.

They learn to recognize and


acknowledge their emotions, and
those of others.
14. They Don’t Get Caught Up In
Power Struggles.

There is no good outcome to


power struggles.

They understand the importance


of respect and cooperation in all
relationships and do not attempt
to control other people or
outcomes.
15. They Don't Take Shortcuts.

There is no such thing as a


shortcut.

They accept that consistent


work, commitment, and
perseverance are necessary for
achieving long-term success.
That's a wrap!
