Noble Goals: Putting Emotional Intelligence to Work in Daily Life

Topic: EQ for YOU!
A noble goal is a lifeline mission that leads you onward to fulfill your greatest human potential. Karen Stone McCown, author of Self-Science and Chairman of Six Seconds, has set "to support myself and others to become human beings" as her noble goal. Clearly Self-Science is one of the results of that commitment. To illustrate this concept, make two lists titled "human having" and "human being." With a partner or group, list words for each.
