Diana, in your opinion, which is more important, IQ or EQ?
Why are you asking me the strange question, Jerry?
I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night. And the question just linged in my mind.
Well. I think IQ matters more. But it won't work without EQ.
Why? You seem pretty sure about it.
Because an intellectual mind can only be a benificial thing in life.
But IQ is decided at birth. One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it.
That is why people's achievement varies greatly.
That is true, but what if one comes across some difficulties. He must rely on his EQ to deal with them.
Yes, Jerry, can you share your understanding of EQ?
I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives.
Quite right. Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success?
Just as Forrest?
Yes, his IQ is high enough for him to embrace the success as long as he can manage his EQ.
