Being able to feel whatever is true in the moment without making it The Truth.
Emotional intelligence is… being able to move in alignment with what you want no matter how you feel, not because you bypass your feelings but because you are powerful enough to have feelings without letting feelings Have You.
Emotional intelligence is… knowing when it is time to set action aside for feelings and when it is time to set feelings aside for action.
Emotional intelligence is… knowing you can trust your sense of when it is time to rest and just feel because you don’t give into your feelings by default on a regular basis and blame your feelings on why you “can’t” be/do/have what you want in life.
Emotional intelligence is… being so in touch with your feelings that you lead them, they don’t lead you.
Emotional intelligence is NOT… controlling your emotions so that you only feel “good/powerful/productive” things all the time. (All feelings are good/powerful/productive when you know how to yield the transformative energy that they are.)
Self Mastery is not… being The Master of your Self. Self Mastery is a verb. A relationship. A state of Being. The embodiment of… emotional intelligence. 💎🪞
