Story
You cannot bounce back from hardship. You can only move through it. There is a path through pain to wisdom, through suffering to strength, and through fear to courage if we have the virtue of resilience. In 2012, Eric Greitens unexpectedly heard from a former SEAL comrade, a brother-in-arms he hadn’t seen in a decade. Zach Walker had been one of the toughest of the tough. But ever since he returned home from war to his young family in a small logging town, he’d been struggling. Without a sense of purpose, plagued by PTSD, and masking his pain with heavy drinking, he needed help. Zach and Eric started writing and talking nearly every day, as Eric set down his thoughts on what it takes to build resilience in our lives.

Sales is a skill anyone can learn and master - and introverts are especially good at it once they learn how to leverage their natural strengths. Introverts aren't comfortable with traditional tactics like aggressively pushing a product or talking over a customer's objections. That's the beauty of The Introvert's Edge: it doesn't focus on the sale itself but on a sales system that helps introverts feel sincere instead of sales-y.

It's comforting to imagine that superstars in their fields were just born better equipped than the rest of us. When a co-worker loses 20 pounds, or a friend runs a marathon while completing a huge project at work, we assume they have more grit, more willpower, more innate talent, and above all, more motivation to see their goals through. But that's not at actually true, as popular Inc.com columnist Jeff Haden proves. "Motivation" as we know it is a myth. Motivation isn't the special sauce that we require at the beginning of any major change.

Most of us believe that we will finally feel satisfied and content with our lives when we get the good news we have been waiting for, find a healthy relationship, or achieve one of our personal goals. However, this rarely happens. Good fortune is often followed by negative emotions that overtake us and result in destructive behaviors.

Self-assessment is subjective
I give it 3.5 stars. After purchasing the book, you are given a code to take the emotional intelligence appraisal test online. You rate yourself on a list of statements, like whether you can be counted on, handle stress well, get along with others, and handle conflict effectively. Then based on your responses, you are directed to certain strategies in the book, like practice the art of listening and catch the mood of the room. This is ineffective. Most people can't objectively rate their own behaviors and performance. If you know you are weak in certain areas (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management), you can practice the strategies in those chapters. However, if you are already aware of your weaknesses and want to improve, you're probably not deficient in emotional intelligence. You're better off selecting a book focused in the area you want to strengthen, such as communication, giving feedback, reading body language, building relationships, making conversations, etc.
Also, the book doesn't provide good illustrative examples where you can picture yourself in those situations and whether you're demonstrating emotional intelligence or not. The examples read like generic performance reviews -- "she sometimes comes across as defensive or aggressive. So for her to be more aware of her tone and language would be helpful." There's no context for these statements, like what was said that sounded defensive and what would have been a better alternative.

Better Printed or as a Pamphlet
Is there anything you would change about this book?
There are many numbered lists in this book that would be better if purchased as a printed book. There is a ton of "filler" information in this book. I would imagine this could be a Pamphlet. It is not worth the cost.
What was most disappointing about Travis Bradberry and Jean Greaves ’s story?
The narration was laughable. He reads experiences from men and women. Instead of just reading the experience he reads one (like a woman) in a high pitched voice, then one like an angry man, happy man… it was so bad, so distracting I could not take it anymore.

This is a good READ.
This wonderful book shines a light on the fact that intelligence, that is "book smarts," is just one component of what contributes to a person's overall success in life. Pursuing qualities such as self-esteem or persistence will make you more effective in your work, as well as bring more joy into your life. He gives you sound examples of how to cultivate areas in your own life, so you are not just reading about how it "should" be.
That said, the narrator starts off well reading this book. He is engaging and fairly easy to listen to. However, at the points when he needs to share the quotes of a variety of people, he uses a strange and almost comical variety of voices and it does not work well. I became so annoyed with this over-acting, that eventually, I had to skip through it. It is truly awful.
I had read the book, and just wanted to reiterate the information more clearly in my mind as I drove. Reading the book is worth the effort!

You need to have access to an online tool
What disappointed you about Emotional Intelligence 2.0?
It is after you buy the book that you realize that you need access to the online assesment tool. It's been a week and no code has been provided so far. I've just called Customer Service to see if I will receive the promised access.Unless you get tested through the online tool, the audiobook is useless.

I wish I had access to this info decades ago!
Where does Emotional Intelligence 2.0 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the top self-help books I have come across. Teaching yourself to engage more positively with those around you helps both yourself and others.
I realise now that as a young person I was quite unintelligent (emotionally) while believing I was quite brilliant (intellectually).
I found the link between financial success and EQ the most interesting fact.
Who was your favorite character and why?
N/A
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The narrator is not the very best, but unlike other reviewers, I did not find him overly annoying. ( If I complained about the WAY an important message such as this was delivered - what would that that say about my EQ??)
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
INSPIRATIONAL.
Any additional comments?

Don't buy this book on Audible. You are supposed to take an online test along with reading this book, and you are supposed to get the code for the test from Audible.

Simple. According to the audible disclaimer " Your purchase of this audiobook includes one complimentary passcode to access TalentSmart’s emotional intelligence test, the Emotional Intelligence Appraisal®."
Well it really does not. And apparently Audible cannot fix it. And without the passcode this content is not helpful at all.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, you need to break off to do the online test and get a score if you have the
Code!
Any additional comments?
Looking at the other reviews the code not being supplied is a common problem

Really interesting audiobook
Would you consider the audio edition of Emotional Intelligence 2.0 to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the print version, so I cannot comment
What did you like best about this story?
I liked that it came with the online content, and the straight forward advice to increasing your Emotional Intelligence
What does Tom Parks bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Tom has very expressive vocalism that keeps me interested, whereas factual books, I tend to monotone when I'm reading
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It has made me stop and think a few times, but the content is not particularly emotionally charged
Any additional comments?
An excellent addition to any library

very good book, thought useless without the test,
DO NOT BUY IT, WITHOUT THE CODE to do the online test it is no better than a triller book, good but useless. very good response and provide from the audible customer service, request sent to some other departments in audible, s no response no acknowledgement, no any further contact. Audible needs to put their house in order, THERE ARE DIFFERENT ON LINE SHOPS WHERE THE CODE IS PROVIDED

No code suuplied

Like the other reviewer on here, I was not emailed a code and am now trying to get one from Audible. It should be straightforward to email this code and is quite frustrating to start the book and realise after the first chapter that you need a code.
