Goleman's Framework of Emotional Intelligence

Goleman's Framework of Emotional Intelligence describes how well you understand and manage your own emotions, recognize emotions in others, and handle social relationships effectively. It includes five components: self-awareness (knowing your feelings), self-regulation (managing emotions appropriately), motivation (driving yourself forward), empathy (understanding others’ emotions), and social skills (building healthy relationships). Together, these help you navigate social interactions, make better decisions, and maintain emotional balance, contributing to personal and professional success. Basically, it’s about being in touch with your feelings and using that awareness to interact wisely with others.
