After reading Daniel Goleman’s essay, which is about emotional intelligence, the only person I could think of is my brother Josh. Josh is the closest person I know to being an emotional genius. He lives his life to the fullest and has very few, if any regrets. He has great mood management, Self-motivation and, has people skills. Many people in our society tend to hold grudges about something for a long time and they needlessly let it bother them, but not Josh. My brother’s ability to be able to manage his mood is amazing. Something small and insignificant that would probably bother most people doesn’t even bother him. For example, Josh has recently gotten laid off from his job.

After many weeks of working on it he finally was able to finish it and it was amazing. There are a lot of people that would have given up the first day, but he didn’t and that makes him so much stronger than many other people. People skills, in my opinion are one of the biggest assets that someone could have. My brother could sell ice to an eskimo. When my
