Willingness to Face Life on Life’s Terms

In order to develop emotional intelligence the individual needs to be willing to face life on life’s terms. This means not attempting to run away from things or find the easy way out. It is the obstacles in life that help humans develop and grow. By overcoming the challenges in their path the person is forced to develop the coping strategies that will increase their emotional intelligence. Eventually the person becomes emotionally sober, living becomes easier, and they will rarely have to deal with strong emotions of any sort.
