“Peas and Carrots” … “Cookies and Milk”… “Intelligence and Emotional IQ”

 

 

Two different things…both, just great on their own…but combine them…and it’s “Oh, so good!” Why? Because they are compliments of each other., and together, they individually become enhanced.

So what about intelligence, and can it stand alone, if it only goes as far as “Head Knowledge” Certainly, it can…as we have all known brilliant minds that have accomplished much in the way of humanity, technology, medicine, ect., and these individuals will go down in our history books as the “Great Minds” of our society.

And yet, in a social aspect…very few of these “great minds” if any, have much of a grip on “Emotional Intelligence”. Usually, these great minds often grow up as “misfits”, or at the very least “enigmas”. We have come to see that probably most of these individuals would fall into the “Autism Spectrum” as well. And, while, because of their extreme intelligence, and circumstances in life, have led them to be successful in spite of the lack of emotional intelligence…what about all the other “great minds” out there that are never discovered, and end up unable to function in society at all.

The question begs to be asked, “Is it possible to have both intelligence, and emotional IQ? And, if so, how could this be accomplished, when it seems that for most of these individuals, the emotional core of their brain seems to elude them? How can we tap into that emotional center, so that “Thinking” can be complimented with “Feeling”.
