This quality is about managing relationships with other people. A person is able to understand when they are not feeling their best emotionally. As a result, they monitor how they treat others. They see it as their task to manage their emotions first. A Learner understands it’s OK to seek help when the emotions are too confusing, and they find help through their support system of family, friends, and professionals. Most importantly, a person who is emotionally responsible knows that hiding, suppressing, or not expressing emotions is harmful to the self and others around them. A Learner doesn’t hide, but they face emotions not as scary monsters, but educational peers.
