Emotional Intelligence is very underrated and it is no less than IQ. Emotional intelligence in the simplest of definitions means your ability to navigate through emotions of people, including yours. It could greatly help you in your job, especially if you are in a managerial position. It can help you in your interpersonal relationships as well.
While we are on the topic of emotional intelligence, I would like to point out that some psychologists believe that it is the same as IQ. The reason they say it is that IQ and EQ have approximately the same correlation while predicting a particular thing as job success. In statistics, if two things have almost the same correlation while predicting the same thing then they are considered the same. You may not believe it as many of the other psychologists.
“The weak are dominated by their ego, the wise dominate their ego, and the intelligent are in a constant struggle against their ego.”

“I will tell you why we have these extraordinary minds and souls, Miss Whittaker,” he continued, as though he had not heard her. “We have them because there is a supreme intelligence in the universe, which wishes for communion with us. This supreme intelligence longs to be known. It calls out to us. It draws us close to its mystery, and grants us these remarkable minds, in order that we try to reach for it. It wants us to find it. It wants union with us, more than anything.”

“But if one observes, one will see that the body has its own intelligence; it requires a great deal of intelligence to observe the intelligence of the body.”

“I didn’t set out to discover a truth. I was actually sent to the Outer Fringes to conduct a chair census and learn some humility. But the truth inevitably found me, as important truths often do, like a lost thought in need of a mind.”

“The purpose of having the orphans study all these diverse fields was not for them to just become geniuses, but to become polymaths – meaning they would be geniuses in a wide variety of fields.”

“We’ve no use for intellectuals in this outfit. What we need is chimpanzees. Let me give you a word of advice: never say a word to us about being intelligent. We will think for you, my friend. Don’t forget it.”

“Whoever prefers the material comforts of life over intellectual wealth is like the owner of a palace who moves into the servants’ quarters and leaves the sumptuous rooms empty.”
