Your EQ announces to the world how emotionally intelligent and capable you are. IQ tells the world what you can do; EQ tells what you will do.
Take the following simple 12-item EQ self-test. Be honest with yourself.
| Item | QUESTION | Yes | No |
| 1. | Are you able to recognize your feelings, how you truly feel? | ||
| 2. | Can you differentiate among the different feelings you have? | ||
| 3. | Do you know why you feel the way you do? | ||
| 4. | Can you express your feelings, beliefs and thoughts and defend them in a non-destructive way? | ||
| 5. | Do you respect and accept yourself, just as you are, warts and all? | ||
| 6. | Do you feel secure and self-confident most of the time? | ||
| 7. | Would others who know you say you have a good sense of yourself? | ||
| 8. | Are you realizing your potential? | ||
| 9. | Would you say you have a meaningful, rich and full life? | ||
| 10. | Do you feel excited and satisfied with your accomplishments? | ||
| 11. | Are you self-directed and self-controlled in how you think and act? | ||
| 12. | Are you free of emotional dependency on others? |
High EQ types will consistently score between 10-12 almost every time.
