05 Feb 10 How Emotional Quotient Affects Your Success

There is another way other than intelligence to predetermine your happiness and success that you are experiencing now in your life.

No matter just how gifted you are, there is something else which will predetermine the happiness and success you are experiencing in life.

Actually, there is one main thing that will override everything else in life, and this one thing will predetermine what you can expect for all outcomes in your life.

Would you like to know that one thing? Emotional Quotient-EQ is the most important thing a person can work on to improve the individual's life.

Some twenty years ago, Social Scientist began researching the elements that made certain people more successful than others. These researchers looked at many different aspects of successful individuals. They began with Intelligent Quotients (IQs). They quickly found individuals with very low IQs who were successful in their relationships as well we financially and were off the chart in regards to happiness. Obviously, Intelligent Quotients were not a predetermining factor. Neither were the numerous other factors they studied and compared in success individuals.

As time passed, these scientists made the discovery and named what they believed to be essential for success and happiness-the Emotional Quotient (EQ).

The EQ is how a person handles emotions on a regular basis. The better a person handles emotions, the better life that individual possesses. The converse is true as well.

The Mental Codes discovery I made a few years ago has helped many people to comprehend more about the relationship between emotions they experience and the effect they have on their life.

I have mentioned many times in the past that people are addicted to their negative emotions. They actually crave negative emotions and will reinforce them in many ways. i.e. They watch the news, focus on negative events in life, talk negatively about people and things, etc.

What I have suggested in past articles is that you begin paying attention to your inner thoughts throughout the day. Notice if your inner thinking is in line with the life you desire. Or, perhaps your regular thoughts are counter productive to what you want.

Today I would like to take you on another journey into your mind and discover one of the most limiting factors with your thinking. Since you've identified some Mental Codes that are keeping you stuck in life, it's time to ask yourself a simple but powerful question.

Why do you want to feel that way?

I know that in the beginning you may say "I don't want to feel this way, but I can not help it." However, the truth is, the one thing we do have control over in our life is our thinking. Now since our thoughts create our emotions, and our emotions create our actions and our habits (good and bad) determine our failure or success. Now you can see the reason it is important to control what we choose to think about most of the time. Think if it this way.....what we choose to think about will determine the rest of your life.

Thank goodness you can ask yourself the question above. You can give yourself an honest answer and begin upgrading your life to the next level. Each person wants to feel the way they do for some reason. Discovering the reason behind why you want to feel this way is the beginning step in accelerating your life into greater success.

By changing your emotions, you can change your life. As you begin changing the thoughts you are allowing yourself to think (also, not think), you will begin feeling different emotionally.

Sincerely,

Dr. Michael J. Duckett
