9 Things Emotionally Intelligent People Avoid Doing

Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand, regulate, and healthily express your emotions combined with a high level of empathy. Everyone has differing levels of emotional intelligence based on their individual past experiences. But emotional intelligence can also be built over time through introspection, empathy-building exercises, and personal growth. Your emotional intelligence level can often be seen through your actions. These are nine things emotionally intelligent people avoid doing.

"Emotional intelligence can be grown with introspection, exercise and growth" yeah, and trauma 🤠

[piyushsan]

The voice is so calm and soothing....
You can even "talk" me to sleep...

[Alucardsleftfang]

"You don't overthink"

Me: Haha brain go

[Peachyroooo]

A lot of this is related to maturity too. I say, don't feel bad if you don't relate to all the points, a lot of them take time and character-building experiences (with a good attitude) to develop. Actually be thankful that now you're aware of them and can work on them, bc a lot of people go through life without even considering these things. The first step to improving yourself is wanting to.

Of coarse, I don’t do ALL the things they say, but I’m pretty close—




I feel good about myself now 😊

"you don't usually overthink things"

[sunoofied.]

*Reads the title*
"Oh maybe I'm emotionally intelligent"
*after watching the video*
"Oh I gotta learn a lot and grow up a bit more"

[penniesshillings]

I am an emotional idiot... But I can listen to this voice for hours.

[lol_I_dk]

Me: *looks at title* yeah I think I might be emotionally intelligent

Me after video: Oh, it looks like I'm emotionally dumb :D
