3 Types of Men: Emotional Intelligence Self assessment

Podcast - The Daily Edge

I’ve been on the phone with hundreds of CEOs and business owners, walking them through how to handle the current crisis. And here are three types of men who are showing up right now:

The VICTIM

The victim is looking to be bailed out. He wants someone else to save him, and has no confidence in himself to take action to improve his situation. He freezes in the moment of crisis, and can’t make decisions. He can’t think of any solution.

The INFORMATION ADDICT

This is the man who wants to take action, but he convinces himself that before he does, he has to know everything about everything. He recognizes that there are opportunities, but he stops himself from taking them.He lacks certainty and is paralyzed by fear, because he thinks too much and acts too little.

The EXECUTIVE/EXECUTIONER

He’s willing to take an imperfect action because an imperfect action is always better than being paralyzed with fear. He may not know what to do, but he’s certain of himself that he will find a way.

What makes the difference between the three is the level of emotional intelligence. Having the emotional intelligence to weather the storm is the difference between seeing the gift in the pain and crumbling when the pressure is on.

Watch this video to see how men can get through this crisis, and how you can get the Edge.

Raul Villacis: Finding Certainty in the Middle of Chaos

The last year has been a crazy ride.

I was in the emergency room watching him fight for his life, and he fought harder than I ever thought possible. But then he gave me the most important lesson he’s taught me: When to stop fighting and let God take control.

And then in March, I put on The Next Level Leadership Summit on the same day that New York began the lockdown. There was a feeling in the air of uncertainty. Then, I got sick with COVID. Then my wife got sick. As I fought for my life, I realized that the world needs certainty. We, as humans, can tolerate pain, but we can’t deal with uncertainty. Certainty is the new currency. For the last six months, I’ve been helping my clients lead with certainty and power when most people are afraid to make a move.
