Do you believe your emotions are weaknesses you must suppress to
succeed?

I have always thought showing or simply having emotions was a weakness that needed to be controlled, crushed or suppress. But what if I told you that your emotions were not an obstacle to success but a critical ingredient in your success and can help you increase your income beyond your dream?

As an Emotional Intelligence Practitioner and Coach I train, develop, coach individuals to improve their performance by allow them to understand, integrate and use consciously their "emotions" and "thoughts" as well as the ones of other to create the results they want and influence others (after all, is it not what leadership is about?). Allow me to share some secrets with you:

Great leaders accept their feelings and allow themselves to feel their feelings fully.
That’s right! They allow themselves to feel their fear in all its intensity, but do it anyway. They don’t try to suppress it or step around it or deny it. They don’t fight it. They accept it and feel it. A great leader doesn’t believe something is wrong with him when he feels a particular feeling.

Great leaders know the difference between conscious emotional action and impulsive emotional re-action. Some people might call this emotional maturity emotional awareness. For example when a child feels angry it will hit people or break things. This is an emotional re-action. Some of us don’t know how to stop re-acting impulsively to our emotions and it
carries into adulthood. When we feel a particular way, we re-act negatively or we channel one emotion to a different emotion and re-act incongruently. It is impulsive re-action most people think of when they imagine an emotional person.

Great leaders feel their emotion, name their emotions, and act on them. If you're able to recognize which emotions you feel in every part of the day, and associate this emotions to a specific event, you are able to recreate it on demands and generate the state of mind, of thoughts you want and ultimately the actions you want to produce. Imagine being able to do that when signing an important deal, create an emotion of certainty, pleasure and achievement, how will you act?

Great leaders trust their intuition. Intuition is the art of knowing without reasoning. Great leaders know that intuition is the shortcut to making great decisions quickly. We can all access our intuition if we learn to listen to our guts.

Great leaders broadcast positive emotions. Great leaders have learned to use their minds to feel and broadcast Love, Hope, Desire, Sex Appeal, Confidence, Joy, Trust, and Faith to other people. This is the best way to create report, forge relationships, another great secret of success.

Great leaders do the seemingly impossible using imagination combined with positive emotion. They create a novel, a piece of artwork, a political movement, a military victory, an invention, or a great theory, by first imagining it in detail while feeling positive emotions like passion, love, and faith. Without intense focused emotions, there would be no world
changing creations. Emotions are the fuel for behavior change, they create thoughts, states that transform the way you act.

Trust me, I wasn't always that way, for a long time I use to be arrogant, harsh to others, pushed people away and this has costed me to lose friends, opportunities,potential incomes or deals. Suppressing your emotions won’t solve your problems because emotions will always find a way to manifest itself.

Your emotions are your strength, not your weakness. It just depends upon how you think about them. Learn how to identify them, use them to create the thinking process you need to support and strengthen your action and have complete certainty.

To your success,

I believe we are all unique and our experience, knowledge and emotions are all a part of our overall mix.
I do feel a leader must have emotional intelligence to lead.
Leadership requires courage, and courage is not acting in the absence of fear, but taking action in spite of fear.

I think you make a valid point here. I do wonder however if you could call someone a great leader if he consciously creates an organization to suppress the rights and freedoms of others. I could also say: if you use your knowledge of creating to give others less possibilities to create. And in a way that is the difficulty with creating through emotions only. But that is probably not what you wanted to say here.
And what you tell us here is probably the reason, why there are so little real leaders in the western world. Because there are lots of people who recognize and use their emotions and the emotions of others, but few that can distinguish between emotions that are fueled by what they experience and need and what they want in relation to what they think is expected of them.
At least I have not met any that can "see" the difference until now. Most leaders I have met, and heard talk or read about, where most of all occupied with their image, their direct future and their wallet. And most have the strange idea that they know better what is best for their employees or fellow countrymen than those employees or countrymen themselves.

And to end. I do not think that a great leader would want to keep this a secret, because this ability would make every human being a saint to his neighbour. We would really start to understand how we are all the same and that competition is a crude way of achieving motivation in humans.

The reasoning here is really adequate. I would like to state that the first obstacle in peoples mind is fear. Fear to be degraded, fear to not be promoted, fear that they will not be able to send their kids to university... And I think that fear is why people re-act instead of interpreting their feelings and act to resolve issues. So they end up loosing their soles instead of allowing themselves to develop to their full potential. It is our job as leaders to take away all this fear, only then we can be truly successful.
