Emotional intelligence and anger

Emotional intelligence and anger

Emotional intelligence has many possible definitions. One of them is the rational way of channeling your emotions into the correct channels instead of venting them randomly on the first victim you find. For instance, if someone had a bad day at work while driving back home and then he yelled at a driver on the road only because he was driving slowly then its not an emotionally intellegent action. The driver's pace is the apparent reason for that person's anger but the real reason behind it is the fact that he had a bad day and just wanted to get some of his suppressed emotions out..

What should have he done?

Thinking in an emotionally intelligent way enables you to think that this person is not intentionally driving slowly. He simply may be afraid of driving too fast.

Now suppose that you were in the same situation and that you had a real bad day at work, What do you think the best way to act would be?
the first thing you should do is knowing why are you feeling frustrated today. If the reason is that you had a fight with your boss because of your imperfect work, you must substitute this anger with another constructive attitude like saying “ok from now on he won't find a mistake in my work ever again”. By doing this you have channeled your emotions from anger to a beneficial challenge.
