High IQ but low EQ is useless. I am one good example. Let me explain myself.

It's true.

In life, if you have high EQ, you are basically destined to lead a fruitful existence. You will feel happy. You will enjoy a high quality of life.

If you have a high IQ but low EQ, boy that is real bad news.

For example, let's take me as a case study.

Yours truly is in possession of an above average IQ (120s to 130s) and previously attained exceptionally high academic achievements in a certain subject. For the record, I was the best student, far above anyone in my general cohort. Possibly even among fellow scholars. That consensus is shared by my lecturers as well. I am not boasting.

But what has that given me ? Completely nothing.

Worse, I am emotionally stunted.

I am not well-adjusted.
