We often treat mood like weather—something that just happens to us.
A blue-sky morning can sour in seconds; a gray day can suddenly lift.
But in emotional intelligence (EQ), General Mood is more than a passing front. It’s the emotional climate you live in—the steady atmosphere that colors how you think, connect, and carry yourself, even when storms roll through.
Those cartoon faces flashing every possible emotion? They’re snapshots from your inner weather report. EQ isn’t about chasing sunshine—it’s about learning to read the sky, pack the right gear, and move through whatever forecast you find yourself in with awareness and agility.
This post in the Emotional Intelligence Series, explores how to elevate your emotional baseline—not through forced positivity, but through grounded habits that support well-being, joy, and possibility—even on cloudy days.
Learn to shift your vibe with purpose, not pressure.
