Emotional Intelligence is a combination of two important terms - Emotions and Intelligence.
The word Emotions represents both feelings, like happiness, grief, anger etc., and physiological changes in the body that accompany these feelings. For example we experience rise in body temperature and perspiration when we get angry. Or our eyes become moist when we are in grief or experience sadness. Every emotion we feel is accompanied with certain physical changes in our body and behavior. People around us know that we are happy, even without our telling them, because they observe a change in our behavior like our eyes dilated with excitement, a smile, an easy body movement and the tonality in our voice.
