For decades there was a commonly held belief that people who were more successful in certain fields would be those that had the highest IQs but when studies were done they found that there was almost no relationship to IQ and success. This drove researchers to try to determine which qualities were actually linked to success, and a large portion of this research led to the development of what is now called Emotional Intelligence.

While IQ tends to measure mathematical and language abilities, EQ focuses more on factors like self-discipline and empathy and it is not difficult to see why it would be so closely correlated to an individual's success.

This worries me, 'cause a test I once took said that I'm emotionally retarded...
