Simply follow the clear, upbeat strategies for increasing your EI you will find in this book. </p> Emotional intelligence (EI) has been called "advanced common sense" and is proven to be a far better predictor of success than IQ.

Become in tune with the full range of your emotions and transform them from your enemies to your allies. Move beyond thinking of success in monetary terms to discover what you really want to accomplish, then actively work to achieve your goals. Build healthy personal and professional relationships, the cornerstone of happiness and fulfillment. Use your emotional intelligence to effectively navigate change and cope with stress. Cultivate optimism and other mental habits of happy people--while avoiding a limited "Pollyanna" outlook </p> EI is not a sideline, soft issue, but a critical factor in your personal and professional well-being. <i>The Other Kind of Smart</i> uncovers deep insights and simple strategies for building the life you want. </p> </p> <b>Advance Praise for <i>The Other Kind of Smart</i></b> </p> "This book shows you how to be more personable and persuasive with everyone you meet.
