"As human beings, we all want to be happy and free from misery...we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear, and suspicion, while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness." - Dalai Lama

"In my 35 years in business, I have always trusted my emotions. I have always believed that by touching emotion you get the best people to work with you, the best clients to inspire you, the best partners and most devoted customers." - Kevin Roberts

"When awareness is brought to an emotion, power is brought to your life." - Tara Meyer Robson

Are you good at reading the intentions of others? Do you know how to manage your knee jerk reactions when someone insults you? Do you wish you could empathize more with the way others feel?

You may know your IQ, and if it is a very high number then you should be very proud of your intellectual ability, but what about your EQ? That's right, do you know your Emotional Intelligence?

So, why is it important that we understand emotional intelligence? You've probably noticed that it's not the smartest people that are the most successful or the most fulfilled in life; being clever, talented or skilled is not enough. In fact, emotional intelligence accounts for nearly 90% of the difference between average and highly successful people.

In life, we tend to live up to certain values and qualities in order to lead life rightfully and to the fullest. Little did we know some of these qualities are connected in enhancing our emotional intelligence?

This book will show you how.

Emotional intelligence can help you to gain control over your own emotions, rather than letting them take over you and making you react in a way that you are not proud of later on, as well as recognizing the emotions of others around you.
