Feelings vs Facts

Facts not feelings

If I had to sum up succinctly what I feel is wrong in our country right now, I would say our emotional intelligence as a whole is in the basement. Emotional intelligence (EQ) is our ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions to facilitate higher levels of collaboration and […]
