Emotional Intelligence - Are you Emotionally Constipated?
"Better out than in, I always say!" - Shrek
I have a personal question to ask you...are you emotionally constipated?
If you are going to be a leader worth following you need to be able to express your emotions well....to the right people at the right time.
We are created as emotional beings, we can't help it...and if we don't express our emotions we become "emotionally constipated"...and when that happens we can become toxic as our unprocessed emotions slowly make us sick...figuratively and often literally. Sometimes our emotions will erupt at the wrong time, to the wrong people or in the wrong way...damaging our relationships and our role as a leader.
Let's learn to express our emotions well and watch our team as well as ourselves be healthier and achieve more.
