Hi Joel and Antonio, my name is Rebecca and I'm an E&T from Chicago.

My question is about E&TP's F I Blind Spot.

Two months ago I was fired from my job because I work at a very small company and the boss

replaced me with a nepotism hire. I felt indignant, but I got right to work right away by applying to other jobs.

I used my energy to focus on moving forward because I didn't want to dwell on the negative.

However, after applying to two jobs, I quickly lost steam and over the past four plus

weeks I've just been languishing. I've done my best to keep it at the back of my mind,

but I think being fired has severely affected me.

Saying this out loud now I know this event has affected me way more than my brain or heart has

led on and I'm wondering if E&TPs have particularly low emotional

quotient because it always takes me a really long time to process negative events if I do at all. And frankly I don't know how to. Do you have any tips? Coincidentally I also have a really hard time crying. Thanks to the both of you for this great podcast.

Thanks, Rebecca, for the question.

So I'm going to frame this as do ENTPs

have low EQ, low emotional quotient.

And Tony, you have ENTP preferences, here we go.
