"It takes strength not to curse someone out when they're being rude or not to lose it when your child is being disobedient. It is also emotionally taxing to keep it all together when you are on the receiving end of a microaggression. Each of these instances requires us to use our emotional intelligence (or EQ). And while it is a basic skill, there are more shades to emotional intelligence than you might think. Emotional intelligence can also be used to break barriers to equity... Don't go through life seeing things in black and white. It's time to see the world in color."--
