Principles of Emotional Intelligence: Learn to know, but above all to recognize, the emotions that you feel and that you arouse in others.

In this text of 'emotional literacy' you will learn to know, but above all to recognize, the emotions that you feel and that you arouse in others.

Discovering the difference between primary and secondary emotions will give you a clearer view of your emotional side.

This will allow you to significantly transform the way you communicate with yourself and the world.

Only by knowing the foundations of our being 'human' will you be able to connect in a deep and authentic way with others.

In the first part I will teach you to recognize the primary emotions, derived from our DNA and the result of millennia of human evolution.

In the second lesson you will learn to recognize and identify secondary emotions, more complex and articulated, resulting from social impositions and mixtures of primary emotions.

In the third and final part we will analyze the fundamental needs of the human being.

In this way, you will always have at hand a mirror that summarizes your physical, psychological and self-actualization needs that will allow you to determine what stage of life you are in, what emotions you are feeling and where to intervene.
