How Emotionally Intelligent People Can Excel In Rejection
We all feel bad when being rejected and get our head down and
take it to heart. But emotionally intelligent people get strong with the passage
of time and accept the challenge of rejection. How?
Emotionally intelligent people get more out of life. They feel
rejected but don't run. Instead, they remember this.
Every one of us has experienced these words like,
Sorry, we don't have a place here. Better luck next
time.
Sorry, you can't do this.
These and many other familiar words have crossed our minds
now and then.
Some of us have accepted it and took the challenge.
But many remain in their place and never try to change their
luck.
There are moments of emotions, and believe me, that is the most
pivotal moment and can be termed as a catalyst.
So, believe this is when you can earn for your personality
and go up in life.
What Is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional intelligence, also known as emotional quotient, is
the ability to manage and take care of one's emotions, interpret emotions from
others, and then use this information as a positive guide for what you think and
do so.
When all this information happens properly, it's usually
easy to understand what others are feeling. In other words, your empathy is
high, which makes you strong. You can control what you feel and then navigate
your interactions.
It leads us to…..
If you decide to overcome that fear, it's a time to learn
from the longtime fear of rejection, and in doing this, you can start the remarkable
journey that can lead you to let grow your personality and ultimately affect
your life.
We call this the rule of rejection, which is founded on
principles of emotional intelligence and can help you overcome your fears. You can
get more of what you want and will learn valuable lessons in the process.
What Is The Rule Of Rejection?
This is simple. It has three parts,
1-
You would not get it unless
you don't ask for it, so don't try to reject yourself.
2-
If the answer is "no,"
ask yourself why? This may help you to get what you have desired and find the
alternative to what's close.
3-
Remember that rejection is
not final. It does not define you. However, your reaction to rejection defines
you.
So, don't run from learning when you want to overcome that
fear of rejection and get more of what you want. Remember the rule of rejection
that goes in your favor.
And when you learn, you will turn "no" into "yes."
More importantly, you will change the way you view rejection forever.
How To Leverage Emotional Intelligence And Empathy For Maximum Success?
The best leaders in today's world are not who innovate great
products and services. It's about having empathy, which directs you to navigate
emotions to help others, a foundation for strong social relationships. Empathy is
a natural result of good emotional intelligence. Therefore, if you leverage emotional
intelligence, you can improve your empathy with those on your team for outstanding
results.
What Is The Connection Between Emotional Intelligence And Doing Well in
Your professional career?
People who are aware of their emotions by noticing, naming,
and navigating their interactions and those who are aware of others' emotions
tend to be better adjusted in life, are more resilient in life, and thus are
more successful. In fact, emotionally intelligent people are top performers,
have high IQ levels, and earn more than those with low EQ levels. This hypothesis
is suggested by the authors of emotional intelligence 2.0, Travis Bradberry
and Jean Greaves.
The significance of being emotionally strong cannot be overstated,
as your job success is the result of your being emotionally intelligent. This supports
the idea of why your being employer behaves and how it is equally important to
evaluate an employee's performance.
Leaders hire and retain people that add or subtract from their
personal brand and company culture. Consider emotions and energy as your bank
transactions. If you show negative emotions like anger, manipulations, and no
trust, that's a withdrawal. You have to make up those withdrawals by paying
back the positive emotions, praise, kindness, and trust. So even though we have
bad days, remember we are human beings and drift from emotions from bad to
good. For every negative interaction, you have to pay your debt in multiples.
Thus, we concluded that emotional intelligence is arguably
the most critical element of personal traits in business because both employees
and customers use their emotions to determine how to interact and whether to be
loyal.
Maya Angelou says,
"People will forget what you said, people will
forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
Improving your EQ and building it within your team and cross-functionally
puts your company on a more solid footing to build both psychological safety
and capital.
Make it a high priority to strong your EQ to excel any rejection
in life and rule the world.
