(Emotional Intelligence) is a great area of study. Google it. In fact you can now get some audio books on the topic to listen to as you drive to work & back home or complete any task that permits multi-tasking.
I share with you all a paragraph below. It is a great example of the subject at hand and manifests a practical approach towards creating paradigm shifts in the minds of people we try better and develop…
Here goes…
“If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up people to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea”.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The above quote teaches us that if we want people to do things diligently, do not tell them what to do. Rather help them build a vision of a world they would love to see the day they die!
This way they will desire the task at hand, be emotionally invested in it, and by default experience self motivation to achieve the desired outcomes.
Do me a favour everyone. Read the quote for a 2nd time and read my few words around it again.
Once done please share this post, and ponder over your life and how you can better your approach to school, exams, assignments, employment, community development and everything else that would apply.
May Allah bless us all and inspire our futures. Ameen.
Your brother
