The Long Bearded Guy ~ Gordon D. Melville 

Let’s be honest, control of any sort is a complete illusion! If you have children or pets you know what I speak of! Controlling ANYTHING outside or what WE think or do is just not a real thing. This is especially true when it comes to emotional intelligence. If we can’t control ‘self’ in an emotional intelligence space, how can we possibly expect to be able to recognize it in others? It starts with choosing to work on self, that generates and builds our awareness and habits around our own emotional intelligence in day to day life. Typically we don’t want to work on self, because its hard. Well, life is hard! So at least get a benefit from the pain!

This week come and dig deep with Gordon D Melville, The Long Bearded Guy & King of EQ as he admonishes us to pay attention to the things in our lives we CAN control, namely ourselves! Simple but rarely easy, mostly hard, painful, messy & requiring 100% transparency & honesty with our largest critic…ourselves! Bring your journal & a friend & let’s courageously set ourselves outside our comfort zones & intentionally grow! Let’s get after it!
