If your EQ is low you need to avoid focusing on the person or identity factors. For like a million reasons starting with the fact that it's not your strength.

If your EQ is low you need to avoid focusing on the person or identity factors. For like a million reasons starting with the fact that it's not your strength. Instead focus on individual ideas and their merits. If you have to criticize, focus on the objective materials and stay away from the personal aspects. Over time this will help you evaluate things like the level of prospective risk a person is willing to take, which is a good swap-in for BS given that the latter could mean just about anything and is an emotional word, while the former is less of a harsh judgment and more objective. Good luck
