Tips on Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence is the ability to identify and manage your own emotions and the emotions of others.

It's the ability of you being sensitive and considerate to your own self and also to other people.

 Emotional Intelligence is you giving attention voice, tone, body language and facial expression of people. 

It's in you listening and understanding the voice of silence. SILENCE HAS A VOICE; emotional intelligence can only hear it.

Emotional Intelligence is in you understand the voice behind any attitude displayed. It's you understanding the difference between people's reaction and their real struggle. 

It's in you knowing why people do things instead of you being blinded by what they have done.

Emotional intelligence is in your understanding people's motive through what they do and say. It's in you paying attention to "how" people do things.

Emotional intelligence is not a place of presumption or assumption. 

It's an intellectual activity through questioning, observation, patience and clarity.  

Emotional intelligence is for people with a wide heart and people who are not desperate or greedy.  

It's for people with the curiosity to understand and the hunger for healthy relationship with the people around them. 


 Emotional Intelligence is you listening to the tone of people's voice. We have different tone of voice. Some tone of voice reveal the following and you must be sensitive to decode. 

* Anger. 
* Fear. 
* Worries 
* Doubts. 
* Confusion 
* Lies 
* Being desperate 
* Regrets 
* Giving up. 
Etc

Being sensitive to the tone of voice when people talk to you will help you to understand what they are saying and even understand what they are refusing to say.       

Facial Expression also contain lots of non verbal Information just like the tone of the voice does. 

Keep practicing and if you are not sure - ask the people question like " are you happy or is there any thing bothering you or are you willing to share what's in your mind?"

These will help you maintain a healthy friendship with people - even in your family or in school or at church

Emotional Intelligence is a daily practice. No body knows it all or have it all or have seen it all. 

This is the best I can pen down but not all it stands for. Try and make more research on your own.

Jesus loves you and He is interested in you being sensitive to the people around you.

Teenagers and Purpose Discovery in Walking with God Through the Process

Beloved of God, your teenage years are not a mistake in God’s timetable. They are a sacred training ground where destiny begins to take shape. Purpose is not something you stumble into by chance. It is something God guides you into step by step when your heart is willing to learn, grow, and listen. Don’t jump the process in your purpose discovery and preparation, because every season carries a lesson designed to shape the version of you that will handle the future God has planned. God is not just preparing a purpose for you. He is preparing you for that purpose. Scripture says, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” Ephesians 2 verse 10. Beloved, many teenagers feel pressure to rush through life, to achieve something fast, to be seen, to be celebrated, or to get ahead of others. But God’s kingdom culture is different. He builds slowly, deeply, and intentionally. Daivd was anointed as a teenager but ...

Making Time for God As Teenagers

What does it mean to make time for God as a teenager? It means learning to balance school, chores, and personal devotion without losing your connection with Him. God doesn’t just want your Sunday; He wants to walk with you every day. Daniel was a teenager when he decided to pray three times a day, even in a foreign land (Daniel 6:10). Making time for God is how you stay strong, wise, and calm when life feels busy or confusing. How can you make this time real and practical? Start small—pray before classes, read a verse before bed, and talk to God while doing chores. Keep your Bible or devotion app handy and build a simple schedule that fits your day. Choose consistency over perfection; even five minutes of sincere prayer can change your attitude and focus. Making time for God is less about the clock and more about the heart. Why is this important, and who must take responsibility for it? You must—because your relationship with God shapes every other part of your life. Where it happens i...

Why Building Discipline Around Your Talents Matters as Teenagers

Every teenager has something God has placed within—a spark that can grow into purpose. But talent alone isn’t enough; discipline shapes it. Many young people have great potential but never see results because they lack consistency. It’s not enough to have a gift—you must train it. Proverbs 22:29 says, “Do you see a man diligent in his work? He shall stand before kings.” Diligence means showing up even when you don’t feel like it. Purpose doesn’t grow in comfort; it grows in commitment. The singers who rehearse when no one’s watching, the writers who keep practicing even when no one reads, the students who study hard despite distractions—those are the ones who rise. Discipline turns dreams into reality. Every time you practice, you’re not just improving your skill; you’re preparing for your divine assignment. God can only use what you’ve developed. David’s victory over Goliath started with private practice—using his sling in the fields when no one noticed. Don’t despise your small begin...
