!!!EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COMES WITH DISCERNMENT!!!
<p>Emotional intelligence is more than knowing how you feel. It’s understanding why you feel that way and choosing responses that protect your peace. It also means recognising other people’s emotions without letting them override your boundaries.</p><p>A lot of people use “empathy” as a reason to tolerate disrespect. They think being emotionally intelligent means being endlessly patient, forgiving, or understanding. But that’s not true.</p><p>Emotional intelligence is balance - compassion with clarity.</p><p>Wizard Liz often says that you can care about someone deeply and still choose yourself. She teaches that you don’t have to let someone’s struggles become your burden, and you don’t have to absorb pain just because you understand where it comes from. That is where discernment enters: knowing the difference between helping others and harming yourself.</p><p>Real emotional intelligence means saying:</p><p>“I see your pain, but I won’t shrink myself to fix it.”</p><p>It means you don’t let empathy blind you to patterns. You don’t excuse harmful behaviour because you “feel bad” for someone. You understand them, but you still respect yourself.</p><p><br/></p><p>So I am going to give a story about myself again </p><p>So I always tried to help people in every way i could, my friends know that about me. Well, one friend only came around when she needed something. I kept excusing her behaviour because I “understood her struggles.”</p><p>I felt drained, tired, I knew I was used, but I didn't know how to say NO because I understood her situation </p><p>Till it got to when I needed help, and I didn't see that hand I always set out to her for help. I felt broken </p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Wizard liz does say “Sometimes you’re not being kind — you’re being drained.” </strong></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">And I could feel it . </span>So the next time she called me, I simply said, “I understand how you feel, but i am so sorry i can't help you.”</p><p>The moment i understood emotional intelligence, i knew that <strong>empathy needs </strong><strong style="background-color: transparent;">boundaries.</strong></p><p><strong>It took me multiple betrays to learn, I don't want that for you </strong></p><p>True emotional intelligence doesn’t excuse harmful behaviour,</p><p>it empowers you to stop accepting it.</p><p style="text-align: left;">Thank youu 💓 </p><p style="text-align: center; "><strong>MAJO♡! <a class="tc-blue external-link external-link external-link external-link" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/10" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#</a>8</strong></p>
