Let's be honest; some of us are not exactly 'gifted' at responding calmly to situations and thinking through them before acting. Think about it; we may have emotional outbursts of anger, joy or resentment towards other people only to embarrass ourselves later or hurt other people when we revisit the issue and the circumstances. And when that happens, it is not uncommon to for friends, relatives or colleagues to avoid us especially after noticing a trend in our instances of emotional insensitivities when around them or other people.

The other side of the spectrum are people who don't seem disturbed by anything, who seem like professional therapists when around people because they know what to say, what to do and how to react when around people in different circumstances. Such people just seem to pull people towards them, as if they were super magnets yet you never hear or see anyone complaining about how they treat or act around people. People just seem to love them more, as they spend more time with them. People trust them and can share their secrets with such people. And even when they are hurt, you don't see them hurling insults at others or letting anger outbursts take over. In simple terms, these people never let their emotions to control them; they seem to be in charge of their emotional responses like pros.

The people in the second part have high emotional intelligence while those on the first part are considered to be having low emotional intelligence. Luckily, having high or low emotional intelligence is not genetic; it is all an acquired skill.

This means if you are in the first category of people i.e. those who are constantly fighting with others because of emotional insensitivities - we cannot read the mood, the timing, the environment and such- you can transform yourself to someone who is able to respond appropriately depending on the situation, time, environment and mood.
