The theory of components of emotional intelligence appealed to me for a couple of reasons. I was drawn to this theory because I have a personal connection to emotional intelligence. Throughout my life, I pride myself on my ability to execute emotional intelligence. I believe it to be one of the most important traits to have, not only in leadership, but in life. Intelligence alone is not enough. The ability to be in touch and aware of your own emotions is key, along with having empathy for others. These two components alone help make sense of any situation in life. If you are able to take a step back and put into practice the five components of emotional intelligence, most, if not all issues/problems, can be made sense of. I learned that this theory also works and should be practiced before an issue arises. It can and should be used on a daily basis.
