Evans Liberal Politics, September 21, 2010, by Paul Evans:
Here is another category of great music from my website, Evans Liberal Politics, everything electronic. For practical purposes, here this would include the sub-categories of true electronic music, house, trance, techno, dance, jazz, fusion and new age music. Basically, I wanted to collect in one place, about all the instrumental music we have on Evans Liberal Politics, excerpt the purely rock instrumentals. Ever since I made my my first blog post on Evans Liberal Politics on November 23, 2008, I have been collecting music to stream for my viewers, and I really feel I have some good sounds here. I love music, and there are some 190 tracks for you over on Paul’s Playlist of rock and pop hits, music that I both paid for – about a quarter of them – and learned how to get for free so that I could share my favorite music with you. I wanted to collect the electronic sounds from my playlist and share it with you:

Excerpt From High IQ Doesn’t Equal Success, Focus on Your EQ, Dumb Little Man: Tips For Life, No Date, by Jay White, excerpt quoted verbatim:
Comment by Evans Liberal Politics owner Paul Evans: We all have a good idea what IQ is, and we all tend to think success is all about smarts, about having a high IQ. It isn’t. People who have this “other” kind of smarts, EQ, or emotional intelligence, tend to be truly successful in life, and raw IQ doesn’t really matter quite as much (although of course both are important). So what is this “EQ,” anyway. Jay White gives us a good summary:
The term “emotional intelligence” first received widespread attention in a 1995 best-selling book by psychologist Daniel Goldman titled Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to recognize, understand and manage your emotions and the emotions of others.
Researchers have coined the term “EQ” (or EI, link points to Wikipedia article) to describe an individual’s level of emotional intelligence. People with high levels of EQ are those who enjoy more self-esteem, have more compassion and empathy for others, maintain closer relationships and adapt more easily to life’s ups and downs.
These four competencies are recognized as key components of a high EQ level:
- Self-awareness, meaning that you know yourself and understand your emotions. This includes being able to assess your strengths and weaknesses accurately. It also includes having a healthy amount of self-confidence.
- Self-management, meaning you have control of your emotions, act rationally and react to change in a positive manner. This also includes being trustworthy, conscientious, committed and optimistic.
- Social awareness, meaning you have an understanding of the emotions of others and know how to effectively react to these emotions. This includes having empathy and compassion for others, recognizing their unique talents and qualities, and having excellent communication skills. It also includes being comfortable in many types of social situations.
- Relationship management, which is the ability to maintain all types of relationships, to avoid unnecessary conflict, and to work through conflict successfully when it does arise. This includes building a sphere of influence and taking leadership when needed.
Comment by Paul Evans: While the way we are raised and educated has a lot to do with a person’s EQ, as does a certain innate, inherited ability at it, one can see from these four components that, unlike IQ, EQ is something that can be learned. Ever wonder why people read self help books?
