Difference between IQ and EQ
IQ is static by the time we're 19 which is our aptitude or capacity for learning.
This doesn't mean we can't learn new things, but the depth to which we will learn things has a cap.
Our personality is static between the ages of 5 and 7.
Emotional quotient is how we understand our emotional information and then use that effectively.
EQ is a skill set we can grow continually and it has no cap.
Balanced because a balanced emotional intelligence equals consistency in character.
