Emotional Intelligence

While recognizing that there is a much broader definition, which includes the use of emotions in dealing with and motivating self, others, and groups, for our purposes we put forth the following:

"Emotional Intelligence, within the context of the Law of Attraction, is the ability to utilize emotions to bring oneself into vibrational resonance with that which one wishes to attract."

Holding the Pain Within

A few years back I saw a portion of a documentary, in which a woman, who had experienced severe trauma during World War II, stated that it ruined her life. She went on to say that everyday since those events she has felt the pain. Not to minimize the pain that she endured, it is obvious that it was not the events themselves that were ruining her life. It was the pain that she was holding within. The pain that she relived every day, for well over half a century, and could not let go of.

While the scenario above is rather extreme, it is fairly representative of what a great many people experience on an ongoing basis, when they have low Emotional Intelligence.

We Live in an Ego Based Society of Right and Wrong

We were brought up to conform. Our politicians pass laws to control our behavior. Our court system is a system to determine right and wrong based upon the laws that the politicians have put in place. From early age we are taught right and wrong by our parents, education system, religious and other organizations, friends, acquaintances, and society in general. There is no lack of people willing to tell us what behavior is appropriate and what is not. The media is always prepared to sensationalize any appearance of someone being wrong.

I point this out to emphasize that we do live in an ego based society and that we all have functioned at the level of the ego for at least part of our lives. As a society we have not yet evolved into a structure that one might consider enlightened. As people live their lives in an ego based structure, they may experience events that can impact them for the rest of their lives. These events are created and are experienced at the ego level.

The Conscious and Subconscious Mind

Our conscious mind is concerned with what it is focusing on. Our subconscious mind remembers everything that it is exposed to and it functions like an software operating system behind the scenes. And so we may have experienced what we perceive to be:

Physical or mental abuse

Betrayal

Lack of ethics

Abuse of power

Legal manipulation

Anger or guilt over what we did or did not do

Other events that gave us a victim mentality

I could make it a fairly lengthy list, but that is not necessary.

A Sense of Unworthiness

These behind the scenes emotions are having a direct impact on your ability to create your life on your terms. You may have a sense that you did something wrong. That you are somehow unworthy. This may be so even if it is someone else who took the low road. These emotions do not serve you and are at the low end of the your Emotional Intelligence. Your vibration of unworthiness is bringing you a life consistent with an unworthy vibration.

Look around. Are you experiencing the life that you wished to create? If not, start digging. Start feeling the emotions that you are suppressing. Once you do they will start to come up from your subconscious.

When You Become Aware of Negative Emotions, Start Releasing Them

It may be as simple as visualizing the issue in a balloon and seeing a pin burst the balloon as well as your negative emotion.

Or just making your conscious mind aware of the issue might be enough to let it go.

Many people have had great success with the Emotional Freedom Technique

Another releasing system that has stood the test of time is the Sedona Method

There are many teachers of the Law of Attraction that say focus on the positive and leave past negativity alone. I believe in this if it is working. If it is not working, you know it. And when you stop, quiet the mind, and ask why it is not working, you will start to uncover the issues that you have to let go of.

A New World Opens to You

When you get rid of the emotions that have been limiting you, a whole new abundant world will open for you.

You will be able to experience unconditional love. You will have a strong sense of well being. You will have a strong sense of worthiness. Your Emotional Intelligence will be high. You will begin to create life on your terms.
