Shirley Qiu's Brain

Obviously this is not my brain. lol

Well, taking some rest time while studying for tomorrow's final exam. Suddenly thinking about why some people such clever, so smart whereas some stupid and extremely idiot. I guess God must have His own reason. You know why? Because i personally felt that when someone has a high IQ, eventually he will be low in EQ. Nothing is perfect. I guess this is why imperfection makes a lot of sparks and flames on the interaction among humans.

Found this explanation:

EQ - is a measure of your emotional intelligence, or your ability to use both your emotions and cognitive skills in your life. Emotional intelligence competencies include but are not limited to empathy, intuition, creativity, flexibility, resilience, coping, stress management, leadership, integrity, authenticity, intrapersonal skills and interpersonal skills.

IQ - a number used to express the apparent relative intelligence of a person that is the ratio multiplied by 100 of the mental age as reported on a standardized test to the chronological age. IQ is the measure of cognitive abilities, such as the ability to learn or understand or to deal with new situations; the skilled use of reason; the ability to apply knowledge to manipulate one's environment or to think abstractly as measured by objective criteria (as tests); mental acuteness; logic and analytical skills.

Many studies have shown that those people with high EQ as opposed to high IQ have a better chance of success in life, in professional career, and in business.Those with high EQ are considered emotionally competent. They recognize and manage their emotions well and people love them because they show sensitivity and they create positive relationships. But some individuals with high IQ but with low EQ have that arrogant and insensitive tendencies. They hurt family members, antagonize co-workers, and drive away customers. But those with high EQ but average IQ can manage to advance and be successful. Is this true?  Then why while we’re in school, we have it drummed into our heads that book learning and a high IQ are the necessary tools for success?

If i get to choose only one among EQ and IQ, i will choose EQ for sure. Why? Because personally agreed that EQ linked to happiness. Not to said i am not happy now, but if compared with owning high IQ, owns expensive property, earn a lot of money through his intelligence but without any happiness in life, life is meaningless, for me. For me, even i am poor i am living in a wooden house or even i dont have any transportations, but in the other hand i have a happy life happy family, everything that so 'lower-standard-life' seems nothing at all. As long as we know appreciation of our life. Contentment.

EQ gets you through life vs. IQ gets you through school. Remember.

Well, what is in Shirley Qiu's brain? Basically, not to deny that i have very low in IQ. Why? I am not so good in study. Not at all. What's with the IQ? While the IQ can measure concepts like logical reasoning, word knowledge and math skills. But in fact, some with high IQs do not seem to be particularly adept at maintaining relationships or seem socially awkward at best. So again, what's with the IQ? Yes, high IQ is, mostly, good for you. But not always beneficial. Some will lead to arrogance.

Anyhow, like i said, i am not clever not smart not intelligence, so what i only left is EQ. Is better for me to control myself, manage myself in EQ. Our level of EQ is important because our emotions motivate us to pursue our unique potential or purpose and as such it is our feelings that activate our life-force or personal power. Like i always said, we tend to always do priory in what we think of want to do. Is our feeling and emotion that always overtake our rational mind in taking any action or deciding to do anything. 

We feel what we want, we do what we feel. [Shirley Qiu 2011] lol

Created stupid quotation myself. Well, this is how we manage our natural source of energy, through our EQ ! lol. If you think about it properly, when you feel good you have enough drive to make the most of your life. But when you feel low it's hard to achieve anything. Nothing will be fine and smooth in your life, actually in your mind technically. I know that those who able to handle owns' EQ will have the ability to handle ups and downs in life very well. They able to control they feeling, their temper, their emotions. They wont simply throw temper, they wont simply pissed off, they wont be affected emotionally which in turn affected very much of others example like productivity.

Well, Shirley Qiu is stressing for final exam, but never really showed it out. Never giving up, never pissed off, never lost control and simply vent it out. Well what is in her brain? Maybe her brain got a little bit of EQ there, but definitely not IQ, because she failed twice previous two semester. lol

Anyhow, everyone do wish to stay happy always. Dont they? Your EQ has more to do with your success and happiness in life than your IQ and emotional intelligence can be learned.
