Transform the way you see the world and the way the world sees you by effectively managing your emotions

Emotional Intelligence walks you through how to: - Manage anxiety and stress so they don't overwhelm you at work or at home - Express yourself and your desires clearly and simply so you can get more of what you want - Be more assertive so you can protect yourself and those you care about from mistreatment
Emotional Intelligence remains the gold standard in effective, self-guided resources for improving your mental health and your life.
