[speaker001:] Diana, in your opinion, which is more important, IQ or EQ?
[speaker002:] Why are you asking me the strange question, Jerry?
[speaker001:] I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night. And the question just lined in my mind.
[speaker002:] Well. I think IQ matters more. But it won't work without EQ.
[speaker001:] Why? You seem pretty sure about it.
[speaker002:] Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life.
[speaker001:] But IQ is decided at birth.One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it.
[speaker002:] That's why people's achievement varies greatly.
[speaker001:] That 's true, but what if one comes across some difficulties. He must rely on his EQ to deal with them.
[speaker002:] Yes, Jerry, can you share your understanding of EQ?
[speaker001:] I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives.
[speaker002:] Quite right. Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success?
[speaker001:] Just as Forrest?
[speaker002:] Yes, his IQ is high enough for him to embrace the success as long as he can manage his EQ.
[speaker001:] I got it.
