Post 107 emotional well-being Emotional competence: empathy

Hello again, today I want to talk about empathy, the fourth pillar of emotional competence. It can be defined as the intention to understand feelings and emotions, objectively and rationally what another person feels.

Here there is already a difference with respect to the three previous pillars, which were about oneself (self-knowledge, self-regulation and self-motivation). You go from knowing yourself to knowing yourself and relating to others, laying the foundations to understand them and establish healthy and positive relationships with others.

Empathy has several functions: understanding others, realizing the importance of others for your own well-being and the achievement of your own achievements, and it facilitates the desire to help others achieve their well-being and achievements. Since we are all connected and we influence each other.

In the following post I will talk more about the subject. And you, are you able to notice the emotions of others? Delighted to read you here or through my email mariarivescoach@gmail.com Delighted to accompany you on your journey of emotional well-being
