What’s your level of emotional intelligence?
Today is going all kinds of wrong — you spilled your $5 cappuccino then missed the bus to work... How do you deal?
I grab a seat down on a nearby bench and take 3 deep belly breaths — a bit of spilled espresso ain't going to ruin my day!
I try to repress my frustration but still feel totally frazzled. Why does telling myself to get a grip backfire?
I can’t stop reprimanding myself... Ugh, why can’t I get anything right? Sometimes I feel totally incapable!

From 1-10, how well do you typically get along with others?
1-4 — I’m not much of a people person. It’s easier for me to keep to myself. When I do socialize, it often ends in anxiety and frustration.
5-7 — I love chatting up a storm with friends and family. Sometimes I let my emotions get the best of me, but usually I'm easy to communicate with.
8 — 10 I speak my mind without coming off too domineering. I’m comfortable expressing myself + am an awesome listener. I get along with just about everyone!
2 / 10
What question do you ask yourself the most?
What’s wrong with me — I feel exhausted... And I've barely accomplished anything today.
What can I do to find peace + presence?
Did so-and-so take what I said the wrong way? I hope he or she wasn't offended...

Your boss tells you your latest report isn't quite up to par. How do you deal?
I nod my head and keep a straight face. But inside, I’m lighting her office on fire…
I have to bite back my tears. I feel terrible that I’ve let her down — I can’t make anyone happy. Not even myself.
I thank her for her feedback. I understand her perspective, but I’m not about to let it affect my positive self-image.

5 / 10
Which of the following best describes your current reality most days?
I’m happiest in the morning, but as the day goes on I begin to feel drained. People ask so much of me, and I’m not great at saying ‘no.’
Usually I’m in a pretty good mood. I try not to take on more than I can manage. I know what it feels to get burned out and I’m so not about that life…
I’m calm and collected. I have a great sense of what I need and am assertive enough to ask for help when the time comes.

Let’s talk boundaries — do you use 'em?
They’re definitely necessary. Sometimes it’s hard to turn things down, but I’m not going to be happy if I’m exhausted…
I love a boundary. If something drains me, it’s not happening.
I don’t feel confident saying no… If I don’t make people happy in the moment, they won’t want anything to do with me.

You crack open a fortune cookie... What message do you get?

Keep doing what brings you happiness and trust that good will come.

Your friends are in a fight. How do you handle the situation?
Find me in the kitchen fixing a drink — I don’t touch conflict with a 10 foot pole.
It’s hard for me to stay on the sidelines… I tend to get too involved.
I’m the deescalation royalty. I’m helping them talk through their feelings and find a resolution!

Your emotional intelligence is… beginning to bud!
Friend, you may have trouble believing this, but you’ve got a lot going for you! Coworkers admire your top-tier talents. Yet, no matter their tireless praise, you don’t 100% trust your own magic...
How does this low self-esteem impact you? You’re likely reluctant to dole out constructive criticism. And when someone questions your actions, you’re quick to jump on the defensive.
Boundaries are a bit of a sore spot, too. You’re scared to say ‘no’ even when it’s in your best interest. Plus negative emotions tend to freak you out… Luckily, there’s a clear path forward!
“You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” — Louise L. Hay

Your emotional intelligence is… in full flower!
Congratulations friend, you know that taking care of yourself is a big part of taking care of everyone in your life! You express your opinions without ever coming off as pushy or threatening.
Boundaries are a big ‘yes’ for you. You don’t overcommit because you know you can’t shine your brightest when worried about what others might think.
Give yourself a big pat on the back! You could basically teach a class on emotional intelligence.
