Among pool of people smart enough to handle the most cognitively demanding fields: SUCCESS ◦ IQ least powerful predictor
◦ EI/EQ more powerful the higher the intelligent barriers for entry into a field
In careers where professional selection focuses exclusively on intellectual abilities, EI outweighs IQ in determining who emerges as a LEADER

The primary cause of derailment in
executives involves deficits in
emotional intelligence.
The three primary ones are:
difficulty handling change
not being able to work well in a
team
and poor interpersonal relations

A time to wait and a time to watch,
A time to be aggressive and a time to be passive,
A time to be together and a time to be alone, A time to fight and a time to love,
A time to work and a time to play,
A time to cry and a time to laugh,
A time to confront and a time to withdraw,
A time to speak and a time to be silent, A time to be patient and a time to decide.

Conduct a “personal inventory.” Analyze the setting & identify skills needed. Enlist trusted friends. Focus on a few competencies. Practice, practice, practice. Be observant and reflective. Don’t expect immediate results. Learn from your mistakes. Acknowledge your successes.

Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush.

Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the first word you learned - the biggest word of all - LOOK.
