Consider the most successful people that you know. What qualities launched them to great heights?⁣

⁣

Were they the academic rockstars of their time?⁣

The valedictorians and Salutatorians of their class?⁣

The masterminds of standardized tests?⁣

⁣

Probably not.⁣

⁣

Worried that the imperfections of distance learning during a global health crisis will impact your child’s future success? ⁣

⁣

They probably won’t. ⁣

⁣

Know what will matter more?⁣

𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭.⁣

⁣

Time and time again, the greatest leaders prove to be those who possess the ability to 𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗻 to others around them.⁣

⁣

The most successful people are those who can think outside of themselves, listen intently, respond empathically. ⁣

⁣

A high 𝙀𝙌, if you will. ⁣

⁣

Here’s the best part-⁣

Where IQ is fixed, EQ has the power to 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄. 𝗲𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲. 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱.⁣

⁣

Emotional Intelligence is, as Daniel Goleman calls it, “learned and learnable.”⁣

⁣

𝗣𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀. 𝗥𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁. 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. ⁣

⁣

Now THAT’S something worth investing in.
