Emotional intelligence tips
Hate is a sign of weak #emotionalintelligence whether done by a culture, a religion, parents, teachers, friends, or the media. All who teach hate to children fail all.
Emotional intelligence tip one: Purge your heart of hatred. Not as hard as you think providing you accept that all people do the best they can given the lessons they have been taught by life and parents and others. Learn EFTI’s emotional intelligence boosting Three Steps to Forgiveness Exercise.
Emotional intelligence tip two: Be alert to media messages promoting hate. These can be as subtle as sports fans yelling “Kill the umpire” or as strong as calls for “Death to the infidel.”Emotional intelligence tip three: Use fact checking sites to root out the false lies of propaganda.Emotional intelligence tip four: Improve the your understanding of the other’s point of view by reading or listening to their spokes people.

STAY STRONG
Thank you for all you do, enjoy and be grateful for all you have been given, practice kindness, work every way you can to abolish hate. Help me do the dame by liking, sharing, or commenting.
