nurture itself, to stay healthy IQ – we use to analyze, reason, and think
logically and rationally (academia) EQ – we use to manage our emotions,
to sense our own and other’s emotions (empathy),
to relate to others socially to achieve a certain goal,
to adapt to the situation.to motivate oneself
SQ is… the intelligence we use to transform our world into a whole new order
of being by finding meaning and purpose in whatever is arising,
to see the positive beyond appearances (faith),
to withhold judgments and accept unconditionally,
to be flexible and adaptable, to sense our unity or one-ness with everyone
and all things, to become aware that we always have a
choice during stressful moments.
