I have learned that positive talk is crucial for emotional intelligence and if do no talk ourselves up we can never grow. This can benefit me by improving my view on things to have a more optimistic nature rather than to look at the downside of occurrences. In addition to this, I also learned that assertiveness cannot be useful if it is accompanied by passive-aggressiveness. There is a positive way to carry out assertion and in this way, it will be successful. I can be more emotionally intelligent in my life by using my learnings from this PSE unit and reflecting upon my previous habits that may have been detrimental to my emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is important to improve on as it has an effect on mental as well as physical health. I also believe that as it may affect my ability to lead, it must be constantly improved upon.
