Quotes edit see section history

  • “This book helps the reader make a targeted effort to develop our Emotional Intelligence, which helps expand our ability to enjoy a wide range of relationships. As human beings we all have emotions; they are an integral part of who we are. Denial or sublimation will not allow us to escape from this simple fact. By expanding our core Emotional Intelligence, we can better build our access to our feelings, better direct our emotions, thoughts, and desires, so that we are not prisoners of their power. Emotional Intelligence helps us curtail negative feelings and thinking and attain more balanced –yet flexible- lives that accord with our values.”
