What Is Your Emotional Intelligence?

People high in emotional intelligence — also referred to as high EQ or emotional quotient — have a healthy capacity for coping; they regulate their emotions and manage their thoughts and feelings, as well as that of others. Self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills are all key components of EI. How well do you understand, label, express, and regulate emotions?
