Recognizing, understanding and managing emotions are not the only criteria of emotional intelligence. Without emotional self-awareness or a moral compass, these skills can be used for manipulation.

Learning new language sounds trivial but it's quite difficult. Especially improving listening skills. You are at the mercy of the speaker's accent, verbosity, velocity and pronunciations. Deduct your capability to interpret all of these together meanwhile parsing through a minimal vocabulary you have. Finally add the inherent biases that you come with because of the environment you grew up in.
Truly understanding someone is far more difficult than just listening or speaking.
The reason why we feel productive during our travels via train/flight, might have to do with our brains considering distance as a measure of time. Suddenly an 8hr/ 600km journey to a destination feels like a deadline is physically moving towards you.

My life feels stuck in a local minima. Work needs to be done to get out of the comfort zone and find a better local minima, if not global.
So you tell me that forcing a smile can induce happiness/positive thoughts subconsciously? If so, cashiers, waiters and doormen should be the happiest people alive.
