To build inner [[Coherence]], and ultimately find harmony with the world as it exists now, the first major task is to improve our emotional competency. [[Emotional Competence]] refers to one's ability to express or release one's inner feelings and emotions in positive or productive ways. It allows the ease to communicate with other people, the ability to face stressful challenges without indulging in destructive behaviors, and determines one's ability to effectively and successfully self-lead and communicate in social situations. [[Emotional Competence]] is an essential social skill to recognize and interpret, including the capacity to respond positively to emotions in our selves and others. Emotional competence creates an increased energetic coherence, as well as improved health, through avoiding stress that comes as the result of suppressed emotions. It leads to improved relationships since destructive emotions are far less likely to be expressed, while appropriate communication is not avoided through unhealed fears of triggering some unwanted emotion. We all can learn to free ourselves from anger, hate, resentment, vengeance, and other destructive emotions that cause hurt and pain. | To build inner [[Coherence]], and ultimately find harmony with the world as it exists now, the first major task is to improve our emotional competency.

These qualities help us to have a better understanding and interpretation of what is actually happening around us, which increases our accuracy in the [[Discernment]] of events.
