Description:... On EXISTENTIAL INTELLIGENCE aka Real-Life SavvyTaking It To The Next Level - Beyond Emotional IntelligenceWhat is "emotional intelligence"? Emotional intelligence refers to understanding and mindfulness of - and the ability to manage - emotions and motivation. It is a set of personal and interpersonal skills related to one's personality and behavioral patterns, which results in a person being able to function more effectively in life.So what is "beyond" emotional intelligence? The next step entails what might best be called "existential intelligence" or "real-life savvy". This type of acumen refers to insights, understanding and skills related to the nature of being and reality - and matters such as freedom & responsibility, choices & commitments, meaning & purpose, and changes & endings. These are fundamental concerns and questions which humans have wrestled with throughout all of recorded history. Dealing with these issues can be rather anxiety-provoking and disquieting, and it usually requires a relatively high level of emotional intelligence to even start the process. However, recognizing and resolving these matters can be very liberating and empowering, freeing a person to function more effectively, to thrive and to prosper.This work is a collection of enlightening perspectives on "existential intelligence" and "real-life savvy". Part One summarizes great existential insights and ideas on the nature of being and reality. Part Two explores existential intelligence on life's ultimate concerns. The Addendum contains three essence essays on the topics of Golden Guidelines For Life & Living, Personal Effectiveness and Living Mindfully. It is hoped that some of these insights and ideas will "strike a cord" and "resonate" with the reader, and offer some practical pointers for life and living.Table Of ContentsAcknowledgementsDisclaimerPrefacePart OneIntroductionGreat Existential InsightsOn The Nature Of Being & RealitySummaryPart TwoIntroductionExistential Intelligence On Life's Ultimate ConcernsSummaryAddendumOn Golden Guidelines For Life & LivingOn Personal Effectiveness - Powerful PointersOn The Art & Technique Of Living MindfullyAn Ode To Life & LivingKeyWords: emotional intelligence, EQ, existential intelligence, existential philosophy, existentialism, self help, self improvement, personal growth, personal development, psychology, www.DrDanMatzkePhD.com
