The Finer Points Of EQI 20 Certification

By John Scott


Human beings have bodies made for the way they live their lives. Legs which for bipedal movement. Lungs for endurance. Eyes for seeing. Brains for thinking. But the brain is not just the center for thoughts. It also where feelings come from, and these feeling, while there is not a concrete method to quantify them, can still be measured with EQI 20 certification.

IQ means intelligence quotient. It means how competently a brain can process information. EQI means the emotional intelligence quotient. This relates to how competently an individual can process emotional data, not just their own, but the feelings of others as well. As such, this requires a degree of empathy, or at least cognitive empathy, which is not the ability to feel what another feels, but merely to recognize specific emotions.

Now, some individuals who live within society like to proclaim as loudly as possible that emotions are not needed, that they cloud rational judgment. But that would ignore the fact that emotional responses are absolutely needed in order to insure the continued survival of the species as a whole. Look at parents and babies. Babies are loud, they stink and they cry constantly. No one in their right mind would ever want to raise one. Sure, some couples like the idea of one, but then the reality of it will hit them as soon as they take it home and it wakes them up in the middle of the night. If it were not for the emotional bond a parents forms with their offspring, most babies would probably end up abandoned, because no sane person would ever want to deal with that hassle. So the people who say feelings make people stupid are right, but they are wrong about how unnecessary they are.

The first aspect of the EQI is the intrapersonal. This is about how competently a person understands themselves emotionally. This can include independence, how well a specimen can function without outside help. But it also include self actualization, that would be how well that same specimen can take control of their own life.

Then there is the interpersonal part. This is all about interacting with others. It is often said that no man is an island, and the fact that humans are social creatures is proof enough of that. Look at society. Everyone works with others to make things function properly, like a body.

Now comes the part of stress management. The road to living is hardly ever smooth. In fact, it can be full of bumps and potholes, stuff that can make living less than fun. Now, how a person navigates these potholes can be observed.

Now, adaptability is one of the ways that humanity evolved to the dominant species of the planet. When problem arise, humans are able to deal with them. This extends to emotional problems as well.

Now comes the part about general mood. This covers this like optimism. This asks the question as to how bright the outlook of a person is. This also extends to how happy somebody is in general.

The world is not a happy place. But it is not a sad place either. It is somewhere in the middle, much like how most individuals feel on a daily basis. Of course, there is no way to really measure feelings.
