EQ Tip #12
Give Yourself A Break
Empathy is not just for others – empathy is also for self. When you face setbacks, treat yourselves the way you would treat a friend in a similar situation. Give yourself a break & be kind, understanding, and encouraging. You’ll be amazed at how it will go a long way in helping you get back up & moving forward.

EQ Tip #11
You Have The Power To Choose
The emotional part of the brain is powerful enough to override rational thinking BUT you have the power to PAUSE and choose how to respond!

EQ Tip #10
Expand Your Emotional Vocab
Emotions are DATA. Emotional literacy is the capacity to access and interpret that data. It is accurately identifying and interpreting both simple and compound feelings. It’s unpacking what else lies beneath the surface - beyond the ‘loudest’ feeling.

EQ Tip #9
Go Deeper
We often connect at a superficial level, and we have all learned how to respond positively to the ‘how are you question’ BUT how can we connect at a deeper level?

EQ Tip #8
Count Your Blessings
It's my birthday!!!! As I reflect on the year gone by, the highlights & those lows, I want to give God thanks for how He has kept me.

EQ Tip #7
Stop Procrastinating
Procrastination is an emotional battle rather than a productivity one. We procrastinate when our brains become overwhelmed by emotions that make us feel uncomfortable.

Tip #6
You Can Do It
Stop telling yourself you can’t. You have what it takes. All you need to do today is take one step forward.

Tip #5
Adapt to Change
Adapt to change. It may not be comfortable – but you might be surprised by what is on the other side.

EQ Tip #4
Start Where You Are
Start where you are. Your emotions can keep you rooted – push forward anyway. Don’t allow your emotions to control your behaviour.

EQ Tip #3
Every Step Counts
Every step that you take forward counts, no matter how small. It’s only after the dust settles that you will see that what seemed to be minuscule steps actually pushed the needle forward – so keep on keeping on

EQ Tip #2
Pay Attention!
Emotions are data - they are not good or bad, just insight. What are your emotions telling you?
