Things Learned in this Class: New Information

I learned that sometimes self-awareness may be unpopular from the article by Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic. Many self-help advisors want to improve self-esteem rather than self-knowledge and urge people to ignore negative thoughts, in particular about themselves. I always thought it was good to acknowledge negative thoughts in order to obtain self-improvement. I also learned how to prepare to have difficult conversations and that compromising gives up less than accommodating. I thought that compromising and accommodating gave up about the same. I learned that there is a genetic component to emotional intelligence. I now know the components of emotional intelligence which are self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship management.

Learned About Myself

I learned from the emotional intelligence appraisal that I need to work on my self-management. I don’t look forward to my future with confidence. I always think that bad things are going to happen that may prevent me from reaching my goals. I’m under a great deal of stress and I have a low amount of self-regulation. When I get emotional it is very hard for me to stay flexible. I tend to shut down and lose control. I do not have active listening skills. My mind tends to wonder off during conversations with certain people. This class helped me to understand some of the many problems I’m facing.

Learned About Others

My answers are going to be based on a coworker. I learned that people really do care and have my best interest in mind. Not everyone is looking to see what they can get out of me. I learned that my coworker does things for others without expecting anything in return. I tried to do things for her but she declined my offer. I also learned that my coworker lost her house when she got laid off but she never talks about it. She only told me that it will be replaced by God in his time not ours. I learned people

    First my strengths from the report showed that I am aware of my own strengths and weaknesses and able to perceive others emotions well. While this result isn’t overall that surprising I then noticed I scored low in the areas of Emotional Identification, Perception, and Expression and Emotional Management. After studying the results further I discovered that although I can interpret my own and others emotions well I struggle at dealing with emotional situations overall which is a very accurate statement of my personality as I have always shied away from approaching emotional situations both in my personal and work life. I think that this assessment has shown me that I need to be more assertive, also one of my weaknesses, and not be timid about using my gut instincts which typically are correct about emotions and become more vocal in emotional situations. Both the emotional intelligence and MBTI reports have shown that my weakness lies in not using my emotional understanding to solve problems and that I rely on my analysis and details too…

    The four-part action plan to rectify the situation was done with the intent to promote the success of all students. Step 1 of the action plan involved contacting the school district’s legal department because I am aware that Essex factually stated that “the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution provides protection of all citizens against unreasonable search and seizure” (2011). I am also aware that “the major challenge facing school personnel involves the task of delicately balancing the student’s individual right to Fourth Amendment protection against the school’s duty to provide a safe and secure environment for all students” (2011). Because Mrs. Cole left her classroom unattended to do the search, it could be argued that she was not…

    After the emotional intelligence test that was provided on www.ihhp.com/testsites.htm, I had the chance to learn more about myself and how I respond to those around me. As I was taking this test I realized that much of my emotional intelligence is not only concerned with my own feelings and actions but how others affect me in my past, present, and future. The questions that asked about my emotional intelligence in regards to my manager made me stop and realize how I allow others to effect me. My emotional intelligence score was a seventy-five. I was very pleased overall. My results…

    I learned many things about myself and the world around me. One major thing I learned serving breakfast to the homeless was how important it is to give back to the less fortunate. Something as simple as saying hello or handing them a napkin can put the biggest smile on someones face and make their day. Giving back should not be such a burden on people. Our generation today complains and complains. We think we have it so bad because we can't do things like have a logo on our jackets, but when you think about it, at least we have jackets. From this experience. I learned that giving back to others needs to be made a priority in my life. I realized how much I value community service and how important it is to me. Equally important, I learned the importance of faith. For some of these people, faith is all that they have. God is the only person they have to fall back on. For someone who lives on the streets without a home or a family, faith and prayer can mean the world to them. Another important thing that I learned about myself is how good helping others makes me feel. To know that I made a difference in the world and helped someone get through their day, as rough as it was, fills me with a sense of gratitude. This experience was a true eye-opener for…

    The term emotional intelligence came into common usage following the success in the 1990s of Daniel Goleman’s book, Emotional Intelligence; why it can matter more than IQ. Goleman pointed out that ‘success’ in life depends not only on our IQ as measured by our literacy and numeracy skills but, more importantly, on how well we know our own emotional make-up, manage our emotional responses and react to the emotional responses of others.…

    My grandmother taught me how important it is to tolerate people and certain situations. She told me showing people respect will get you a long way in life, as well as seeking help in hard times and facing problems instead of running away from them. Because of this, I try to see the good in people and over look the bad. When I have a problem I think of ways to solve it. When I cannot find a solution I ask for help before things get worse.…
