Today's session came across as one of
the most refreshing sessions. The day covered an entire range of human
emotions. It started by stating the importance of Emotional Intelligence and
ended by a huge emotional out pour.
Firstly, Emotional Intelligence is what
all of us have to look forward to if we want to go up the ladder. Anyone can be
a Leader but to be a Charismatic Leader you ought to have Emotional
Intelligence. It is perhaps all about Emotional Mind Mastery. When you do this
efficiency and proficiency follow. EQ is not something you can blame on
ancestors to not have inherited from. It can be acquired at any stage and any
age. A person with high EQ has the magic of spreading warmth and love. When the
heart and mind is aligned towards a common purpose the result is extra
ordinary.
Secondly, hearing a person is no big
deal. Listening is something. But listening to understand is what makes you
stand out. Reading the silence is an art. Like it is said silence is louder
than words. You tend to become a fantastic problem solver. Talking about
Listening an important insight was shared abbreviated as PAL( Process, Agenda
and Limit).
Last part of the session was my
personal favourite. More so because it
touched those chords of the heart which were rusted. The activity to build
community with strangers started by resistance and went on to total resonance.
Where once I was scared to open just to share facts, I was now opening up to
share some of the darkest and deepest secrets. There was an instant connect
with the entire group and together we brood over each other's guilt and
regrets. This is what is called genuine sharing perhaps. But whatever it is, it
was great. And really left me with a feeling that my problems were not actually
problems. They were more self imposed suffering.
I would like to conclude by the
following lines.
"There is a story behind every
person."
