Write your blog post

Use the research notes you wrote in the previous task as your starting point.

Your post must address all three of these:

  1. What is Emotional Intelligence? Describe it in your own words.
  2. How is EQ different from IQ?
  3. Why does EQ matter — to you, in your learning, or in the tech industry?

Write honestly and in your own voice. There is no correct length — aim for something you would actually want to read.

The Big Idea (revisited)

Writing about what you have learned is itself a learning tool. Publishing it means you have committed to an idea — and that makes it easier to build on next time.
