EQ 12-DAY CHALLENGE

Welcome!

We are excited to see you here!!!

The EQ Challenge is a learning journey, and so we invite you to:

• Know yourself - by creating deeper awareness of the subject matter

• Explore Possibilities - by noticing gaps, opportunities, and areas of further development or growth

• Plan a way forward - by intentionally seeking how you would apply the learning in specific areas of your life

• Make it happen - by taking actionable steps towards growth, and sharing your learning with your community

We invite you to pursue these learning

• At your own pace (We recommend one module per day)

• At your best learning environment

• And join the online forum where questions were tackled and networking is built

Once again, we celebrate you.​

Now, let's begin:

What are Emotions?

Just before we run into EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, let's get this foundation right.

Okay?

Let's get you started right away with the third module.

Go for it...

Hello,

Glad to see you building your EQ muscles and hopefully, watering your EQ Tree.

Let's get you started with Day 4.

Welcome​,

And today, we will focus on Emotional Awareness:

Let's get started....

Hello,​

Riding from the Emotional Awareness competence, we now move to a competence that comes with a challenge.

Are you ready?

First, let's go to Sandra

Welcome to Day 7 of the EQ Challenge

In this module, we will take a break from EQ and dive into understanding and determining your FIVE MOST IMPORTANT VALUES.

Let's hop in.

Hello,

Its day 8 and a good day to learn about Self-Efficacy

It is such a powerful tool and I hope this inspires you and your community

Let's hop in.

Hello,​

Its Day 9, and we look into the world of Flexible and Accurate Thinking, which we'd later term as UcheShift.

But before we do so, let's run a brain teaser game:

Which of the cups would get filled first?

Hello,​

Its Day 10, and we look into the world of OPTIMISM and what we'd later term as AmanaDrive.

Hello,​

Its Day 11, and we look into the world of EMPATHY, and what we'd later term as UBUNTU-EMPATHY.

Hello,

This is Sandra, and I will be reaching you today, via a short letter:

Its day 12 and a good day to learn about Responsible Social Connection

As we conclude on this series, there is no better way to end this that to realize that no man or woman is an Island. We were made to be with each other, and for each other.

Let us introduce the concept of UBUNTU.

Ubuntu Proverb (Southern Africa)

"Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu."

• Literal Translation: "A person is a person through other persons."

• Meaning and Illustration of Responsible Connection: This is perhaps the most famous African proverb articulating a philosophy of interconnectedness, known as Ubuntu. It means that our humanity is not a solitary state but is defined by our relationships with others. To be a responsible, ethical, and complete human being, one must actively recognize the humanity in others and participate in the community with respect, compassion, and reciprocity.
  

  • Responsibility: It implies a duty to treat others well because their well-being is intrinsically tied to your own. You have a responsibility to build up others, as they, in turn, build you up.
    

So, let's join Tekena Ikoko, as he shows us Responsible Social Connection, which he aptly now renames as "UBUNTU HARMONY."

Let's hop in!
