“Emotional intelligence in the work that we do, in the Resolving Conflict Creatively Program, is about equipping young people with the kinds of skills they need to both identify and manage their emotions, to communicate those emotions effectively, and to resolve conflict nonviolently. So it's a whole set of skills and competencies that, for us, fall under the umbrella of emotional intelligence.” PeopleNeedsKindWholeYoungFallEmotionYouthEmotionalSkillsConflictProgramCommunicateManageResolveResolutionNonviolenceEmotional IntelligenceUmbrellaWin WinCompetenciesResolving Conflict Author:Linda Lantieri

“Obama dreams of a society without power relations, without the agonism that constitutes political life. Against such a position one might assert that justice is always an agon, a conflict, and to refuse this assertion is to consign human beings to wallow in some emotional, fusional balm.” HumansDreamMightPoliticalJusticeHuman BeingsPositionEmotionalConflictRelationRefuseAssertionPolitical Life Author:Simon Critchley
“I have witnessed firsthand the anguish of this humanitarian tragedy - in Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Pakistan, and other conflict and post-conflict zones. The destruction of lives and hopes, the emotional trauma, and the economic, social, and political marginalization of the displaced, the human insecurity, with real and potentially devastating consequences over generations, in ever-widening arenas of conflict. We can and must ensure the human rights of the displaced. That begins by making their voices heard.” HumansRealPoliticalSocialVoiceRightsGenerationsHeardEconomicEmotionalConflictConsequenceDestructionTragedyHuman RightsIraqTraumaHumanitarianPostsZoneInsecuritySyriaAnguishPakistanPalestineArenaMarginalizationEmotional Trauma Author:Queen Noor of Jordan
“Characters exist in a flat line until we challenge them - sometimes they challenge themselves, sometimes they're challenged by other people, by nature, by robots, or by fungal infections in and around one's nether-country. Stories need conflict across the physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual spectra. Accidents, betrayals, cataclysm, desperation, excess - these are the letters in the alphabet of conflict.” PeopleNeedsWritingCountrySometimesCharacterStoriesSpiritualChallengesLinesEmotionalConflictIntellectualLettersBetrayalAccidentsFlatsExcessDesperationRobotsAlphabetInfection Author:Chuck Wendig

“What is the influence of Sun Tzu in the world today? Perhaps there are others who are better qualified than I to speculate about that question. Sun Tzu's ideas, as expressed in his famous treatise, have undoubtedly influenced the nature of many revolutionary movements that are arrayed against more powerful forces, and in some cases - as in Vietnam - have played a useful role in bringing about success. But such ideas are always in conflict with other deepseated emotional factors, which propel dissident movements into the rampant use of terrorism and other forms of anarchistic struggle.” WorldIdeasUseTodayFormForcePowerfulRolesCasesStruggleSunInfluenceMovementEmotionalConflictTerrorismFactorsRevolutionaryVietnamQualifiedWorld TodayNature Of ManDissidentsAbout Success Author:William J.

“Now, now," my father said. "Let's just get the bags." This was typical. My father, the lone male in our estrogen-heavy household, had always dealt with any kind of emotional situation or conflict by doing something concrete and specific. Discussion of cramps and heavy flow at the breakfast table? He was up and out the door to change oil on one of our cars. Coming home in tears for reasons you just didn't want to discuss? He'd go make you a grilled cheese, which he'd probably end up eating. Family crisis brewing in a public place? Bags. Get the bags.” WantKindSaidEndsReasonHomeFatherSituationDoorsCarTearsEmotionalConflictEatingFlowCrisisTablesMalesHeavyOilDiscussionBagsComing HomeBreakfastConcreteHouseholdCheeseTypicalLoneBrewingCrampsEstrogenGrilled Cheese Book:Just Listen Source: Just Listen
