Emotional intelligence could be one of the hallmark finds of this 21st Century. It is amazing to think that what we have always considered emotions to be worthless and even troublesome, only to learn that they are now being called, perhaps the most important element in our success in life. But what does that really mean?
It means that learning to be smart with your emotions is something worth learning. It means that being smart means something different than it did two decades ago. It's a new hope for many people who have been left on the sidelines of life, having always been told that they did not have what it takes to succeed. For the first time, many people are learning that they are smart in so many other ways.
But there is something very special about being smart with emotions. Because emotions influence so many areas of our lives, it is not enough to know that Emotional Intelligence is; you must be able to use your emotions intelligently. This book was written with that and you in mind; to help you harness the power that resides -- not in knowing that you can be smart with your emotions, but in knowing how to be smart with your emotions. It is a book you really want to read.
