topic one

Mark and Anna have been married for 3 years. They often disagree about who should handle some of the household chores.

What are some effective listening skills and strategies that Mark and Anna can use in discussing these household chores? How might they make sure they understand each other better? What barriers to mindful listening might be getting in the way?

Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to identify and manage one’s own emotions, as well as the emotions of others. Though there is some disagreement among psychologists as to what constitutes true emotional intelligence, it is generally said to include at least three skills: emotional awareness, or the ability to identify and name one’s own emotions; the ability to harness those emotions and apply them to tasks like thinking and problem solving; and the ability to manage emotions, which includes both regulating one’s own emotions when necessary and cheering up or calming down other people. The skill of emotional intelligence will help you greatly in your career and make you a better communicator. You can learn more about this concept at the link below.
