Publisher's Summary

Want to get smarter? Develop your EQ.

Emotional energy is in many ways our most precious resource. Emotions are the fuel for absolutely everything we say, do and create, and emotions are directly responsible for the degree of personal and professional success that we enjoy in life.

Successful people, no matter their profession or field of interest all have one key characteristic in common: they are masters of managing their emotional energy. 

Simply put, they control their emotions, and don’t let their emotions control them. They know how to direct their emotions to give them the best results, and don’t get caught up in negativities.

Too often, however, we waste our energy by thinking unproductively about ourselves and others. We get caught up in emotions of uncertainty, doubt, jealousy, anger, resentment, and are apt to hold grudges and think negatively about ourselves and others.

Imagine what you would be able to accomplish by freeing up our most powerful resource - our emotions - and using them to our advantage!

Emotional Intelligence is quickly becoming understood as the primary indicator of how successful a person is likely to be in any endeavor, whether that be bringing the world a new invention, being a great leader, or just maintaining healthy relationships. 

You can easily improve your chances of success in everything that you do, simply by improving your EQ, or Emotional Intelligence quotient.

meh.

has some good information but definitely glosses over it very quickly. its very repetitive. and I had to hear "that being said," more times than any one person should!

Best book

Thanks for this book. this book content and quality was really good.. i learned some new things from this book.

Great book

Best emotional intelligence book i have ever read. audio quality was also good.Thanks for this book.

Right Brain Vs Left Brain: EQ vs IQ

I liked how this book talks about the importance of EQ and how to develop it. That being said, it’s a combination of EQ and IQ that makes a person likely to be successful, not just one or the other.

Increase your Social Influence and Listening Skill

If you want to be understood, learn how to understand others. Active listening is so underestimated! If you can really hear what people are saying, then you will have a powerful tool in your ability to influence their behavior.

Self Awareness is Key

Self awareness is key to emotional intelligence, and this book will teach you exactly how to become more self aware, intrinsically motivated, and in touch with your own emotions!

Learn the Four Aspects of Emotional Intelligence

They are:
Self-awareness,
Social awareness,
Relationship management,
Self-regulation or self-control
It’s one thing to know them and another to put them into practice. However, this book will teach you how you can start applying the principles of high EQ. There’s a 10 day challenge that will increase your EQ score on any evaluation!

Important Information, Presented Thoughtfully

Loved this book! I believe that EQ is super important, and I also liked the challenge in this book because it makes the knowledge practical. A++

Your Ability to Read People will Improve!

You will be able to read people much better after reading this book and practicing the exercises. Part of that is just because you will learn how to become a better listener, but you will also be more emotionally neutral which will allow you to see things that you would have missed before!

Grow Thicker Skin

It’s something that most people struggle with. I have always been really sensitive to others' opinions of me, but at the same time know that it is something that I should mature beyond. This book is excellent because it teaches you how to do self development in a very useful and practical way.
