7 Steps to Being Healthy and Fit

IQ is still recognized as an important element of success, particularly when it comes to academic achievement. People with high IQs typically to do well in school, often earn more money, and tend to be healthier in general. But today experts recognize that IQ is not the only determinant of life success. Instead, it is part of a complex array of influences—one that includes emotional intelligence. Many companies now mandate emotional intelligence training and use EQ tests as part of the hiring process. Emotional Intelilgence or EQ refers to a person's ability to perceive, control, evaluate, and express emotions. Researchers such as John Mayer and Peter Salovey, as well as writers like Daniel Goleman, have helped shine a light on emotional intelligence, making it a hot topic in areas ranging from business management to education.  EQ is centered on abilities such as: Identifying emotions Evaluating how others feel Controlling one's own emotions Perceiving how others feel Using emotions to facilitate social communication and Relating to others So you can see why this would be important for fathers Grab your FREE Copy of "7 Steps to being Healthy and Fit"

Often we're discouraged because of some tough challenge or obstacle in our way. But a shift in mindset from a Zen proverb can change everything: “The obstacle is the path.” The obstacle isn't something standing in our way. It's the way itself.

Emotional intelligence is the single most important influencing variable in personal achievement, career success, leadership, and life satisfaction. Emotional intelligence is the “something” in each of us that is a bit intangible. It affects how we manage behavior, navigate social complexities, and make personal decisions that achieve positive results. And Building emotional intelligence in children provides greater opportunity for deeper communication and understanding between parent and child, because you are sharing your thoughts and feelings on a regular basis.

That being said, it is extremely important for us as father to beef up our EQ. Our IQ may not change much after our formative years but your EQ can constantly be worked on and improved over time. So if you cant get smarter then you had better be emotionally savvy.

Exactly What to Say by Phil M. Jones delves into words, phrases, and questions that can help keep you in control of conversations and negotiations, making sales and influence more likely simply by changing a few small details about the way you speak. On this episode of the @4fitfatherhood podcast, we duve into another business of fatherhood segment. While anyone could benefit from this book and the advice it presents, it is heavily geared toward business people and, more specifically, salespeople. The advice will be most directly applicable to those regularly involved in sales. As fathers, whether we know it or not, we are constantly selling ourselves, our ideas, and our morals. Using these magic words can help you create a bigger impact in your relationships with your children and your significant other.

There are four ways you can be a dad. They relate to the four degrees of actions that every person can take in life. There is massive action, normal action, doing nothing, or retreating. Remember that everyone operates at these 4 levels of activity in different areas of their lives. You may be taking massive action for your finances while doing nothing for your physique. You can be retreating as a dad while being a normal husband. The point is that if you believe fatherhood is important, you need to be taking massive action as a dad.
