Everyone wants to be successful; however their perception of success is different.
One may dream of riches or to become a doctor or attain a satisfying relationship or be famous, and so on. And different means are sought to attain this goal – study, hard work, workshops, training, mentors, coaches, makeovers, inspired reading, and so on. But in all situations require us to interact with other people and the kind of relationship we share with these people often spells our success quotient.

This short story explains Social Intelligence wonderfully.
Three maths undergraduates are assigned a room in the hostel. One of the girls, from a small town as is evident from her dressing style, is teased by the other two, well groomed girls, on being a “behenji”. She ponders before replying, “I agree my dressing style is not up to date. But I never had the chance to learn about that before as I spend my time in acquiring excellent trigonometry skills; and I am really good at solving trigonometry problems and know great tips to memorize formulae. You have such a good dressing sense, maybe you can give me few tips on that.” After this, the girls tone changed from sarcastic to friendly, and the initial hostility was gone. And the three roommates bonded very well from then on.
This short dialogue displays excellent social intelligence skills. The small town girl aptly used her social awareness and social facilitating skills to bring the other girls in a friendly zone. She converted a hostile situation into a win-win situation with just little thinking.
