Dr. D Ivan Young – Relationship & Emotional Intelligence Expert

It’s really good to be here, and I want to first acknowledge these students, because this is not easy when you’re a student. It’s not even easy when you’re a professional. So can we give these guys a hand? Thank you.

I’m here to talk to you about two things that you would think just do not go together. Those two things are emotional intelligence and the laws of attraction.

I was talking to Dr. Thomas the other day when I came for the rehearsal and he said, “Well, Doc, emotional intelligence — isn’t that being aware and having clarity about your feelings and the feelings of other people when you’re in the midst of a set of circumstances or a situation with them?

And I said yeah, that is definitely a definition for that and a very accurate definition for that. But the truth about emotional intelligence goes far beyond having just clarity about people. It’s clarity about situations, circumstances — why are you there?

When you stop and think about, I’m in this situation, I’m in the midst of something. Now what is that something and more than likely that something is a set of circumstances or a dilemma you may have encountered that you attracted into your life. And that’s where the laws of attraction come to meet emotional intelligence.

Like attracts like. These things that you expect come to you.
