Emotional Intelligence by Dr. David Walton

Emotional Intelligence by Dr. David Walton is a book that shows the importance of EQ in our lives. The book mainly focuses on describing what is EQ and its necessity in our lives.

What is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional Intelligence or Emotional Quotient is a measure of ones emotional understanding and stability. The term just like IQ is relative, however, there is no way to measure it.

The Process of Thoughts
Our days productivity depends on the thoughts running in our mind. On the cycle of thoughts that plan our next act. We could be doing great until there is a heated argument with someone, when someone doesnt fulfil their duty and it delays your work. It could also be something as trivial as missing a bus.
In situations like these, it is important to understand the reason why the other did what they did. It is important to hold yourself together and not let the situation affect you.

It’s not the IQ
Though, we are firm believers that IQ is the measures of ones success, but that is not always the case. IQ could get you a nice job, but your success at job, depends on EQ. Dr. Walton shows exactly how, one can emotionally manipulate situations in their favor.

Though most big business owner we look up on seem to have high IQ, but they also have high EQ and we are unaware of it. Most small business, run on strong conversations which comes from high EQ.

The Content
The whole idea of Emotional Intelligence runs deep, and it is hard to capture it entirely. The author instead produced a Read Me First book which gives a brief overlook on the subject. David has shared some few tips and tricks we can use in our daily lives to turn things around for ourselves.

Conclusion
Who should read the book, Everyone! Though the brief content, there is a lot of information one can pick up from the book. The unusual way of presenting a psychological fact in a non-scientific manner is what makes the book stand apart.
