Life Quotients: Psychology

 

IQ  ,  EQ  ,  SQ  ,  AQ

According to psychologists, there are four types of Life Quotients: 

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)

2) Emotional  Quotient (EQ)

3) Social Quotient (SQ)

4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your comprehension ability", solve maths; memorize things and recall subject matters.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others; keep to time; be responsible; be honest; respect boundaries; be humble, genuine and considerate.

3. Social Quotient (SQ): 

This is the measure of your ability  to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time.

People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize in improving IQ level while EQ and SQ are played down.

A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ.

Your EQ represents your character; your SQ represents your charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs but more especially your EQ and SQ.

EQ and SQ makes one manage situations better than IQ does. 

Pls don't teach children to only have high IQ , but to also have higher EQ and SQ.

Now there is a 4th one:

A new paradigm...

4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): 

The measure of your ability to  go through a rough patch in life and come out without losing your mind.

AQ determines who will give up in the face of adversities and possibly even abandon their families. 

To parents:

Expose children to other areas of life other than academics. They should enjoy doing manual work (never use work as a form of punishment), sport and art .

 Develop their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents.

Finally, do not prepare the road for the children. Prepare the children for the road.
