Everything you ever want will come from another person and people are either persuaded or more likely to give you what you want when you are emotionally intelligent.

Hey, Capitalists, it's time to crack open your favorite beverage. I like Zivia.

This is Wednesday with Wyand on capitalism.com.

Hey everybody. We're going to be talking about how to develop emotional intelligence,

which is something that many people say is either an innate skill or it's not, that it can't

be taught or it can't be learned, it can't be developed. But I think it is just like leadership

or business acumen. It's a skill that some people have naturally that other people

don't have as easily, but either one can become better and more in tune to it. Before we jump

into how to develop this, why is this even important? There's two reasons. Number one, the first reason is

because everything that you want in life, everything that you will ever want in life, will be an

emotion. So before you can actually enjoy anything that you get or pursue in life, we have to have the intelligence to enjoy

it. That seems weird. But the truth is, we desire emotions more than we desire things. We think

things will give us emotions. And that's why we want them. And the second is that everything

you ever want will come from another person.

And persons or people are either persuaded or more likely to give you what you want when you are emotionally intelligent.

When you have emotional intelligence, if you're a business owner,

you can charge higher prices. If you are a parent, you can calm your kids down much quicker.

If you debate or communicate, you can more effortlessly persuade or communicate your message

when you are emotionally intelligent.

We'll go through that.
