EQ or IQ

Dear people,

Read the views on IQ/AS and loved it. Thanks for sharing. Here, what I feel about IQ/EQ is. We are social animal and being emotional is our birth right. We human beings are fooled emotionally only because that's our weakness. Being emotional is necessary for humans but to what extend? To measure that we need IQ so that it should not be misused.

Any decisions we take in life needs IQ. Decisions taken emotionally comforts us time being but if it's taken logically probably will save us from problems as nobody knows about the future. Taking Logical decisions is the best we can do. Whether you want it or not, emotions will always be there, what we need is IQ which will control EQ.

Hi,

I think that IQ is more important than EQ. People are always very difficult to judge and whatever judgment our mind makes out of a person, it'll definitely not be 100% perfect. So if we take a decision by understanding people's mentality, it's not very sure that we will succeed in it.

But on the other hand, a person with more IQ will be able to process more data and statistics than a normal person. The data and statistics might prove to be the very important and solid proof of whether an idea is successful or not. So decisions which are based on solid proofs rather than understanding the emotional quotient of other people will be very strong.

There are so many probabilities to succeed than blindly believing something and acting upon it. IQ not only means studies, mugging up or getting good scores in exams. It also means the ability of one's mind to process the data and analyze true facts very quickly than others. Increased IQ also means decreased response time to any kind of problem or situation. I don't say that only IQ is enough to succeed in life. But, I feel that IQ is more important than EQ.

Many of us have already voted in favor of both Eq and IQ for those I really want to ask a question if IQ really means intelligence. Then why it's different for people of different age?

IQ dependent upon one's knowledge at that particular time it can be easily improved by enhancing one's knowledge that is why we see when people repeatedly try to pass a particular exam he/she improves!

Even a psychopath can have extraordinary IQ point but that is not in case of Eq it depends upon a person's instinct that he/she develops throughout his life.

Hence I can definitely say that Eq holds better position than IQ.

EQ stands for Emotional Quotient or Emotional Intelligence and IQ stands for Intelligence Quotient. EQ basically means how we connect with other people by empathizing with them, by understanding their emotions and feelings. IQ is the indicator of how intelligent a person is, how easily he comprehends a problem, how quick he/she in getting a result or solving any puzzle.

Earlier it was assumed that IQ was the ultimate measure of success of any person but now it has been realised that EQ is best way for determining any person's overall development. It has been found out that a person having higher EQ excels in his or her work, has better capability to manage a team and helps in maintaining friendly behaviour among coworkers and understands difficulties of everyone. Someone has truly said, "IQ will pass you through exams in hall but EQ will pass you through exams in your life". EQ should be inculcated in children from their childhood itself. They should be made to share their food, toys with their friends, they should be encouraged for helping other people and they should be given space. So we should prefer EQ over IQ.

Both EQ & IQ are important for human being, without EQ a human being cannot think emotionally or may not understand anything or any rules, IQ plays an important role in testing the intelligence level of human being because without IQ/intelligence an ability of human being for creativeness is zero.

According to me, without eq a person is like a robot who can take decisions and solve problems based only on the logical circumstances, but he may not be able to qualify the problems which need to be understood emotionally and according to the rules and regulations of the surrounding environment. Thank You.

Hi, everyone. EQ is the ability to think, understand and action to do. But IQ is intelligence to think in a higher level, reasoning and problem solving. In each person's IQ and EQ are both needed. But my choice is EQ because it is long lasting and it shows the attitude of a person. It helps to succeed in life.

An EQ and IQ both are equally important for a person to be successful. IQ helps the person to decide logically, practically and also accurately. A person with higher IQ level will be a spontaneous thinker and they will be able to arrive at a solution quickly. But IQ alone doesn't help the person to be successful. EQ is also very important because EQ helps the person to know the exact mental perspective of the other person. With the help of EQ a person can find out whether that particular person is producing a true information or not. So it is always better to have a blend of IQ and EQ.

I support EQ. Decision-based on IQ may be quick, accurate and refined. But rational, long lasting and result oriented decisions can be taken only on the basis of EQ. India being faced with bureaucratic apathy needs EQ very much as its sensitivity and humane approach.

Is much needed for the benefit of marginalized and underprivileged people of our country.

Hello everyone,

I just want to share my thoughts on EQ or IQ.

Actually, everyone has different perception while judging someone, maybe it can either be an emotional decision or intellectual decision. In spite of having a sharp intelligence mind (IQ level), we can't take a proper decision because everything can't deal with our logic. Sometimes we have to deal our problem from our depth of feeling, emotions. So we've to keep in mind, a good human being needs a strong EQ & a sharp IQ.
