While on the other hand some people says that emotional intelligence is a God gift. Which is gifted to some people only. It can not be understand in any school or college. Whatever I consider that it is up to the people they can do what they want.

Many researchers define emotional intelligence accordingly but if we focus on the overall description, then we will find that they all defined it in the same way.

"Emotional Intelligence is the subset of social intelligence that involves the ability to monitor one's own and others emotions and feelings to discriminate among them and to use this information to guide one's thinking and actions."
