I think IQ and EQ play a very prominent role in our personal as well as professional life. We need to maintain a balance between the two because if we are having good IQ but our Eq is weak then we might not be able to deal with people in a better way as we would not understand what they want from us. Similarly, having lack of IQ.
Is also not good as would not be able to get desired results in various domains of life. So I conclude that both IQ and EQ are equally important to become a successful person as well as a better human being.

A psychopath or sociopath can have a high IQ, and a low EQ. A high EQ it's equal with a mature personality; you are aware of your self, your reactions, your emotions, you have empathy for others, and you do your best in educating your own inner in order to live a valuable life and not hurt anybody. Also, helps you to take all the responsability of your own action. A high IQ helps you solve your problems in a quite short time, to find valuable solutions, improves your creativity, and participate in a efficient way to improve your life.

Hello everyone!
According to me, both EQ and IQ are equally important. If one is engine then second is oil. Where IQ is helpful for both our educational and financial development, on other side EQ is important for social and personal development. Without IQ, no person can exist in this competitive, tough era of life and without EQ one cannot build his/her personality.
So one should possess both EQ and IQ. Both are important factors for a living and human growth. Both nourish each other and should be in a balanced manner.
Thank you.

Hello, friends.
I think we need both EQ and IQ in a very balanced way.
There are some people who are successful because of they're intellectual.
But it's not all.
Nowadays EQ is equally important as it is the quality of leader to influence people and strive them for a common goal. To influence them you need to motivate them and to motivate them you need to understand their needs. And to understand, intelligence is not all you need, you also need an emotional touch. Empathy. Your behaviour, manner is the way you talk.
Thank you.

Both IQ and EQ are complementary to each other. A person having good IQ thinks logically and is not affected by other peoples emotions. IQ is cognition and EQ is affection. A person with good EQ thinks emotionally. A person having high IQ will not consider others interests and sentiments. This may lead to problems in group activity whereas a person with high EQ might be easily influenced by emotions and may not focus on work. So a balance of both is desirable but this happens hardly. A little of high EQ is good according to me.

Sherlock always ruled out any Emotional Value in any of his investigations. This helped him do a better job but was he liked enough by the people? His works were admired, but character not.
So the leader of today is expected to have the skill of empathising along with being an intelligent decision maker.
Only IQ will make you good decision maker but not a leader.
Only EQ will make you a good leader but not good decision maker.
A perfect balance of these two will make you climb the ladder of success faster than you think.

EQ and IQ both are important at there places. A person with high IQ and without EQ can't able to handle the difference between their professional and personal life. But for me EQ is more important because the person with EQ can handle toughest situation in their life. If we take the example of housewife or our mother she takes decision from her heart if she also started using her Brain so there will never be Peace in home. For maintaining peace in home many times she ignore people behavior. So EQ is more important.

I think both EQ and IQ have their own importance and people having a perfect balance of both is usually rare. But I think it is this disbalance that makes us different from others. People with very high IQ may tend to think always logically but their decisions may lack emotions. High EQ people may be good at understanding others feelings but at times may be driven away by emotions which is not always the right thing to do.
So I think a disbalance up to a certain extent is normal but it should not be large.

Hello Friends,
I appreciated every comment posted here. My belief regarding IQ and EQ is that they both hold equal importance and they should work as per the situation. A person always needs both and he should take best action according to the situation when it required. Emotional quotient is my priority but still, we can't ignore Intelligence quotient to take practical action. We must be practical when it required. I believe that every person should both active with mind and quite emotional.
Thank you.
