Emotional Intelligence and Buying the Wrong Camera

Jul 31, 2020

 

 

I’ve been working really hard the past few months… I decided to buy my business a new piece of equipment. It didn’t work out as planned. And I was pissed, and childish and resentful.

 

After a few days of not the best attitude, I did the work I know to do. I decided to confront my inner child on why I was such a bad sport. And the results were fascinating.

"Being adult, emotionally intelligent, professional, is not predicated on how I feel.” - Mark Silverman

 

Today on Mastering Midlife:

                 

  • I did the research, asked the experts and still bought the wrong camera for my business
  • I resented all the people who gave me the “wrong input”, and I didn’t like the solutions
  • I couldn’t get past my emotional challenges surrounding coming up with a solution
  • I did the work… I took responsibility (finally)
  • Once I did the work, the solution easily appeared
  • Even a teacher of EI gets caught in the mud
