The Emotional thought method (Spanish: Pensamiento emocional Ã,) develops a set of activities that can be used in a personal or group-oriented way. This method involves the development of Emotional Intelligence in the same way as Daniel Goleman (1995) proposes in his book Emotional Intelligence, the bestseller book written in 1995.

Origins
The method of emotional thinking was created by Carlos Huà © Ã… ©, a Spanish psychologist who was a teacher at the university of Zaragoza, a city located between Barcelona and Madrid. This method is described in the book Pensamiento emocional. Un mÃÆ'  © todo para el desarrollo de la autoestima y el liderazgo (Huà © Ã… ©, 2007). Unfortunately, this book has not been translated into English. Carlos HuÃÆ' mengumpulkan gathers a lot of practice in this method to develop emotional skills.

Emotional thinking method
Emotional Intelligence is based on several competencies that are intended to help a person gain success in personal, professional and social life. This type of competence is usually obtained in the earliest and throughout adult education, but they are not taught in a specific way. The reason is that these competencies are said not to be taught, as they are characteristic of individual personal maturation.
There are a large number of training actions favored by corporations, public administrations, entities, institutions and social agencies that develop some of these competencies. However, there is no complete method to train emotional competence.
Emotional thinking methods illustrate that emotional competence can be learned throughout life, so it can be taught, learned, and even evaluated.
Emotional competence
This method proposes seven emotional competencies, four self-references such as self-knowledge, self-evaluation, emotional control, and personal motivation; and the other three refer to others, such as: the knowledge of others, respect for others, and control over them.
- Self knowledge is the first competence to develop and naturally goes through knowledge of capacity, skills, personality features, interests, goals, etc. This is usually ignored in educational programs. These include introspection, broad self-knowledge, emotional self-knowledge, self-criticism, and self-awareness.
- Self-evaluation of the competencies of these two methods of Emotional thinking. This competence has a basic relationship with self-concept and self-esteem. In this method, self-esteem is the real driving force of people's behavior. When people feel unhappy, they feel they do not have enough strength to work, to make connections with others or to live. Conversely, when people are happy with themselves, they feel they can face new challenges and projects and engage in life's problems. This competence is the result of developing sensibility, sensuality, sexuality, appropriate aptitude and emotional evaluation, optimism, happiness and self-esteem.
- Emotional control is the third. Emotions are tools used by animals to survive. Emotions provide quick responses to animals and people to their enemies. Stress, fear, and anxiety are emotions that help to avoid external attacks by reacting with caution, retreat or even attack against possible harm from outside. But according to the method, if people do not manage these key emotions, they can be managed by them. So this competency develops three emotional skills such as: motor inhibition, self-control and mental control.
- Personal motivation is the last competency developed by the Emotional mind method to achieve the target. Motivation is the power of people's behavior and life and that is why our interests and desires affect the actions we perform on a daily basis. Expectations, dreams, and enthusiasm (especially the latter) are the real power to work, love, to live. Emotional thinking methods present a set of competencies to be developed, such as: activation, productivity, quality, instrument tools, globality, planning, culture, innovation, expansion, determination and evaluation of interests.
- There are three competencies in this emotional method that are oriented on how to make connections with others. So the fifth competence in the Emotional mind method is Knowledge of the other. Success in life depends very much on how people associate with others who live close to them. So it is important to know their personality, what they are interested in, which is their need. Knowledge of the personality of others, knowledge of their talents, empathy, communication skills, social analysis, appreciation of diversity are some of the abilities developed in the fifth part of this method.
- Another appreciation is the sixth competence of the Emotional mind method. The way you value people is a decisive competency to improve your position in the relationships made with them. In this method, ten capabilities are proposed for the development of this competency. They are structured in four groups.
- The first group deals with the capacity needed for a relationship: approach, afability and tolerance.
- The second group includes the capacity to create links: beliefs, understanding, and social skills.
- The third group includes three levels of approach: friendship, friendship, and love.
- Finally, there is a responsibility, as a summary of everything.
- The last competencies developed in the Emotional mind method are: Control other people. Many people criticize this competency because they say that it does not respect them. But everyone wants to persuade others to do what they are interested in. So the seventh competency of this method develops the capacity to have relationships, the capacity to organize groups, the capacity to resolve conflicts, and, ultimately, leadership.
These seven emotional competencies are developed through several exercises proposed in the method of Emotional thinking, just as in the doctor's book Huà ©  © quoted earlier, as in the TREIN project mentioned below. This method is a systematic project to develop all the emotional competencies needed by everyone, in work, within the family, among our friends, in our lives.
European Applications
A recently developed European project has been translated into English, French, Italian, Swedish, German, Bulgarian, Romanian and Spanish, of course. The project is named TREIN (Training in Emotional Intelligence), and can be found on the website below. So this method of Emotional thinking, as well as appropriate to develop everyone's mental health, fits in job training. It is suitable to teach emotional competence to employers and employees. It is also a good method to reduce occupational accidents and increase labor productivity.
