For the next several weeks, I would like to share with you some of the writings of Lauretta Zucchetti. As a former award-winning executive at Apple and Xerox, Lauretta Zucchetti is currently an author, life coach, and motivational speaker. This collection of Emotional Energy tips was published in 2016.
"Like empathy, self-control and conviction are sure signs of an emotionally solid person. Emotionally intelligent people are well-aware that a second glass of wine will lead to negative consequences the next morning, just as they know that an invitation to go on a spontaneous weekend rendezvous will detract them from fulfilling their pre-existing commitments.
They are definitive about their decisions, rather than saying "I don’t know, maybe?" or "Perhaps I’ll skip the gym today," which invites doubt — and with that, heightened anxiety, even depression.
The more often emotionally intelligent people exercise their right to say no, and the more frequently they rely on their willpower, the freer they are to concentrate on their ambitions and overall well being."
