What’s New
Words to ponder:
Time to read:
At first, I was so frustrated with the little progress of the meeting because
of “concerns” surfacing, I had been aware with the irrelevance of some
issues of the students yet I allowed plenty of time for the discussion letting
each person to share their feelings: but not allowing to dwell on them, but
providing a safe space where we each actively listened.
After the meeting we agreed that having this sharing had been a
necessary first-step in healing the divisions, clearing misunderstanding,
establishing respect, open communication and catering to viewpoints. I
had to admit that the whatever project I will suggest would not succeed at
all if the ill-feeling existed.

What is It
Direction: Answer the following guide questions presented, base your answers
from your experiences; answer the questions in your activity notebook.
1. Do you easily get upset when things do not go the way you expect them
to be? Why or why not?”
2. Is your emotional intelligence high or low? Why do you say so?
Lesson 1
5
What makes you …….
Afraid
Angry
Excited
Proud
Jealous
Relaxed
Embarrassed
Happy
Lonely
Ashamed
Lesson 2
Having high emotional intelligence let’s an individual recognize his own emotional
condition and emotional conditions of others as well. EQ is also used to better communicate
with other people , established better relationship , realize greater accomplishments at work
and go ahead to a more rewarding and satisfying life
6
Note: The science of emotional intelligence tells us we must begin with our own self-
awareness before we tap into others emotion.
Intellectual intelligence (IQ) is not sufficient on its own for a person to be successful
in life , Even the smartest people do not necessarily become the most successful in life.
There may be people who are academically brilliant but are socially ineffective-simply put it
this way your IQ will give you a perfect score –but- your EQ will aid you to handle stress and
emotion to face the exam ,therefore , both has their own specialty and both must be
nourished simply because both are important .
7
3. Mental Health
Uncontrolled stress can also affect people’s mental health, making a person
susceptible to anxiety and despair, incapability to understand and manage
emotion also causes mood swings , while an inability to form strong
relationship can leave you feeling lonely and isolated .
4. Relationship
Understanding your emotions and learning to control them will mean you are
better capable of expressing your feelings and understanding how others feel
as well. This lets you communicate more efficiently and build stronger
relationship at work and your private life
Lesson 3
We can all work to build even stronger emotional intelligence skills just by
recognizing what we feel, understanding how we got there, understanding how others feel
and why, and putting our emotions into heartfelt words when we need to
8
Skill to significantly improve communication
1. The capability to emotionally associate with others using nonverbal communication .
2. The ability to use humor and play to stay associated in challenging situation.
3. The ability to decide on conflicts positively and with confidence.
TYPES OF RESPONSES
1. Passive response: Behaving passively means not expressing your own needs and
feelings, or expressing them so weakly that they will not be addressed.
E.g. If kaira behaves passively in a remedial class to pass the Oral communication
class, waiting to be called, don’t volunteer and not saying anything even if it’s nearly time,
she will probably feel angry with the girls who will perform ahead and herself. If the teacher
says the remedial is done before she gets to perform, she will be furious at the girls before
her for not being ready since it’s too late to change the situation
2. Aggressive response: Behaving aggressively is asking for what you want or saying
how you feel in a threatening, sarcastic or humiliating way that may offend the other
person(s). An aggressive response is never in your best interest, because it almost
always leads to increased conflict
E.g. kaira calls the girls names or threatens them, she may feel strong for a moment,
but there is no guarantee she will get the teacher to give her a chance. More importantly, the
girls may also respond aggressively, through a verbal or physical attack on kaira
3. Assertive response: Behaving assertively means asking for what you want or
saying how you feel in an honest and respectful way that does not infringe on
another person's rights or put the individual down. An assertive response is almost
always in your best interest, since it is your best chance of getting what you want
without offending the other person(s). At times, however, being assertive can be
inappropriate. If tempers are high, if people have been using alcohol or other drugs, if
people have weapons or if you are in an unsafe place, being assertive may not be
the safest choice.
E.g. kaira would ask the girls if she can perform first since she is well prepared and at
least they can finalize their speech so as not to waste the time and for the others to perform,
she will not put the girls down, but merely state the facts of the situation. She can feel proud
for standing up for her rights. At the same time, she will probably be supported in her
statement by other classmate. While there is a good chance that the girls will feel
embarrassed and move, there is also the chance that they will ignore kaira and her needs
will not be met.
9
Am I Assertive?
Now, think of a better way to handle that situation in the future. Write a
better response and practice it. Think of a time when you were too
bossy. What happened?

Lesson 4
• Look further down the surface of your emotion. Ask yourself, what am I actually
reacting on? Does the concentration of my emotion match the situation?
• Reflect whether or not the situation to which you are reacting will matter tomorrow ,
next week or next year.
• Do not react on a tough feeling until you have carefully reflected the potential results
of your actions.
• Use optimistic feelings to encourage yourself. Dismiss negative or disappointing
feelings by engaging in physical activities or by talking to a family member or trusted
friend.
• If negative feelings do not leave, seek help from a parent, another trusted adult or a
healthful professional.
At one time or another you probably have been surprised by strong emotions,
Extreme emotions can affect your attitude and behavior in ways that are disappointing.
When you feel your emotions are building up, identify the feeling and deal with it by taking
slow deep breaths to relax. To compose yourself, you may also escape the situation that
cause the feeling. Writing in a private journal or diary, playing music, talking out your feeling
over a family member or trusted friend to help you mirror on both your emotions and the
situation that leads to them.
1. DEFENSE MECHANISM
Because of the way feelings upset you, you may attempt to avoid the ones that
cause you distress by using defense mechanism. These are mental processes that shield
individuals from strong emotion and situations.
a. Denial- This involves a person not recognizing the reality of a stressful situation in
order to protect themselves from overwhelming fear or anxiety.
E.g. Very sick but staying positive as they try to overcome the illness
.
b. Distortion- This involves a person believing something to be true when it is not
e.g. Believing that you fail the exam because of one difficult question
11
d. Dissociation- involves feeling disconnected from a stressful or traumatic event — or
feeling that the event is not really happening.
e.g. Accident, kidnapping
2. HANDLING FEAR
Overcoming fear entails strategy; the first step is to recognize your fear. Examining
the cause of fear and talking it to someone you trust helps because it may give you a
different view. Some fears are healthy and natural, only when fear is il;logical that you could
consider it a problem.
We feel fear when we are not safe, sometimes it even after the danger has passes
until we learn that we are safe again.
There are three reaction to fear;
Fight(Attack the threat),
Flight( Run away) and
Freeze(do not move, Float away in your mind )
Healthful response to fear:
• Understand what makes you feel unsafe(people, situation, feeling) and why.
• If you are afraid of a threat that happened long ago-get counseling to be processed.
• Give yourself small challenges to confront the fear.
• Create a small space at home or anyplace for comfort.
• Build up the physical strength in your body
Guilt can be a damaging emotion. Try to get the source and address that issue when
you feel guilty about something. For example, if you have offended someone-confess your
mistake and apologize, learn from the experience and decide to be more cautious in the
future.
12
Helpful response:
• Take time to understand what you feel guilty about- spell it out.
• If your guilt is about your response to being hurt, learn to forgive yourself..
• Share your feelings to someone you trust.
• If you genuinely did something wrong. Do what you can to make it right, then forgive
yourself, then let it go.
• Practice self-love, even when its inappropriate. (That is when you need it the most)
• List your strength, gifts, achievement- no matter how small
4.MANAGING ANGER
One of the most challenging emotions to handle is anger. The first step in dealing
with anger even if there is nothing you can do about it is finding the source of that anger.
