37、ok about emotional intelligence (情商) or EQ is more important than IQ in ones success in life. One of the highlights of the book is a test that Goleman calls The Marshmallow (棉花糖) Challenge. In this experiment, four-year-old children were separately called into a room. A kind man gave a marshmallow t
38、o each of them and said they could eat the marshmallow right away, or wait for him to come back to get two marshmallows. Some of the children covered their eyes or played games to keep their thoughts off the single marshmallow and waited for the promised double prize. Others about a third of the gro
39、up simply watched the man leave and grabbed (抓) the marshmallow and ate it right away. Twelve years later, the same children were teenagers and they were tested again. The emotional and social difference between the grab-the-marshmallow kids and the satisfaction-delaying kids was interesting, Golema
40、n says. The ones who had resisted eating the marshmallow right away were clearly more socially capable than the others. They were less likely to become nervous and disorganized when stressed; they welcomed challenges and followed them instead of giving up; they were independent and confident. The th

And all because of a single marshmallow? In fact, Goleman explains, its all because of a lon
42、e neuron (孤神经元) in the brain, that bypasses the neocortex the area of the brain where reasonable decisions are made and goes straight to the amygdala (大脑杏仁核), the emotional center of the brain. Here, the more that emotional memories involving disappointment, worry, and fear are stored in early teena
43、ge time, the more the amygdala can control the rest of the brain, Goleman says, by flooding it with strong and improper emotions. But if the emotions stored in the brain are those of self-managing, self-motivation and hope, then we are given a gift of an emotional Intelligence that serves instead of
44、 controlling us for the rest of our lives. However, amygdala takes a long time to grow, around fifteen or sixteen years, which means to Goleman that emotional intelligence can be taught, not only in the home but perhaps, more importantly, in school. 31.
