सबसे पहले तो रितू जी और पिंकी जी का धन्यवाद जिन्होंने Emotional Intelligence क्या है और आज हम जो VUCA world में जी रहे है इसमें यह कितना ज़रूरी है | मैंने यह भी सीखा कि किस तरह से mindfulness practice को develop करना है और हमें हर परिस्थिति में शांत और धैर्य रखना है | मैंने यह भी सीखा कि pleasure, passion और purpose किस तरफ से एक दूसरे से inter -related है | मैंने यह भी सीखा कि आत्म-जागरूकता भावनात्मक बुद्धिमत्ता का प्रमुख क्षेत्र है जो अन्य सभी को सक्षम बनाता है | मैंने resilience क्या है सीखा और समझा कि दुर्भाग्य या परिवर्तन के लिए आसानी से समायोजन से उबरने की क्षमता ही resilience है |

I had just heard the terminology of emotional intelligence before the start of this life class, but now I realize after attending four sessions how important it is in my professional as well as personal life, and how this skill is very much required in today’s VUCA world. What are the three types of happiness and how pleasure, passion and purpose are very much interdependent and how these forms are of happiness are related to motivation and what are the three steps process of motivation, how I have to align my work with the values I possess, what are the values the famous personalities used to possess, and how resilience is going to help to overcome from the failure.

We all have some or other emotions at every moment and so our actions are accordingly. I can control my emotions and think before showing any emotions but was not aware the terms such as Self-awareness and Self -regulations. In this life class I have learnt many new terms and strategies to live a happy life. 

We are living in VUCA world.(volatility, uncertainty, complexity and Ambiguity) where we face unexpected challenges. So we have to prepare for it and for this EI is necessary. Therefore in the coming years, EI is an essential skill that all should have to learn. 

If we are emotionally intelligent we can face challenges, can think critically and so we become more confident.

There are six universal emotions Happy, sad, Disgust,  fear, surprise and angry in which all have same facial expressions. 

We should understand our emotions as well as of others to. 

There are five domains of Emotional intelligence which are categorized between intrapersonal and interpersonal.,  4. Empathy  5. Social Skills

1. Self-awareness- We should be self-aware of our emotions so that we should know what we are doing or why we are doing it. To be more Self-aware we should follow Mindfulness (meditaion, walking and listening)
2. Self-regulation – We should not flow through our emotions. We should be enough mindful and strong enough to regulate our emotions. Mindful listening, Meditation, and mindful walking will help us to regulate our emotions.

  Our worries should be healthy so that we should plan beforehand to tackle them,.

3.Self Motivations- In which we learned about three types of Happiness- 

Pleasure, Passion and purpose.

In Vardan sir’s session, we got more insights about Pleasure, passions and Purpose. It is difficult to differentiate between pleasure and passion. We get pleasure from small things we do or get but for passion, we need to take out the time and put effort into it.

Sometimes our Passion doesn’t incline with our purpose. So it is good if we make small small goals and then achieve our big purpose of life.

We are the only ones who can make us happy.

IKIGAI – Four Quadrants activity helped to identify our passion, liking, love and Purpose of our life. 

As we are working in the organization so it is essential to create a positive environment and be mindful there so all should understand each other, improve their performance, increase their well-being and live a happy life at the workplace as well as personally. 

This way the four days of life class were very fruitful for me.

Life classes have always helped me widen my horizons. This life class have helped me get acquainted with innumerable terminologies. It has also helped me widen my horizons.

These classes surely serve as stress busters. Amygdala hijack, ikigai quadrnats, intrinsic motivation, Siberian North rail road and many more conceptual and meaningful discussions have helped me grow personally as an optimistic personality with a pragmatic approach.

Real life experiences shared by other group members have helped me become open minded. these classes are surely rejuvenating and serve as a stress buster. Looking forward to more sessions that will help me unleash my potential and maximize my productivity in my personal as well as professional life

It is important to be aware about your own emotions and the ways to express them knowing the facts that emotions are temporary and we can change them that will result in change in approach to the situations that trigger us, to make ourselves and people around us safe mentally and physically.

This helps in personal growth, improve personal and professional relationship we have. We need to be mindful which is a state that is between the stimulus and response. To attend it, we need to develop the skill called emotional intelligence. We all often fail to be in this state of being reactive to the stimulus and stay in that state of emotions that is called Amygdala hijack. There are three domains of emotional intelligence- Self awareness, self regulations and intrinsic motivation.

We do all of this for the ultimate goal being happy. There are three kinds of happiness- pleasure, passion and purpose. If you find a purpose, you can envision and anticipate the results. In order to get desired result, you challenge yourself knowing more and developing more skills and you develop interest in what you are doing. When we achieve the desired result ,we are motivated for bigger goals for ourselves, community and more.
