As you grow you learn more, in this episode of ONE LIFE, I'd like to share with you one of the things I learnt which is the power n importance of human psychology.
It's so crazy and simple but true nonetheless:
This whole world we live in is based on human to human interaction, it's not about how strong you are, it's not about what you look like, it's not about how much you know, it's not about how much money you have.
Its about humans dealing with other humans. So if you learn to master how to do that - you're set!
You can do whatever u want and be whoever u want to get and get whatever u want if you have this strong understanding of why humans act the way they do and are able to respond and interact accordingly.
It's all about emotional intelligence (EI)
Yes it's true there are "successful" people who are great at their job but suck big time on the emotional intelligence.
Take for example one of my vice-presidents at P&G. He has awesome analytical skills and comes up with solutions so fast everybody shuts up and agrees. But take the guy out of his job context and he's like a jellyfish. You poke it,it doesn't react. Bleh.
That's the word that best describes people with low EI. Bleh.
So the learning is: get a PHD in psychology.
No really just put some effort in your daily lives and take it into consideration , the rewards are massive.
Hope you have a rocking human-to-human day!!!!!!!!!!
