Description

Do you wish you had more friends? Is your love life as good as it could be? Do you wish you had a better job? Could you family relationships be better? Then you need Dr. Fred Cremone’s latest work Emotional Intelligence: Develop and Apply Improved Social Skills and Take Control of Your Relationships and Your Life. You not only learn what emotional intelligence is, but how to apply it in your life to better your relationships with everyone. First, Dr. Cremone explains what emotional intelligence is. True, all of us have at least a little of this sense, but some of us have a great deal of it. These people are popular, enjoying many friendships and usually dating quite a bit. Dr. Cremone explains why this is, so we have a framework to improve our own social intelligence score. Dr. Cremone starts with an interesting but sensible premise: that we can not relate closely with others while we are consumed with our own stressors. Therefore, in order to develop social acumen, we must seek to control the stress in our lives. Interestingly, those who have delved into the subject of meditation will find some reading and exercises on practicing mindfulness as a method to increase your emotional intelligence. Dr. Cremone explains that mindfulness helps us to observe things and others closely, an important part of emotional intelligence. Then Dr. Cremone takes us into the application of emotional intelligence. This valuable sense can be applied in many situations, but foremost in relationships that need improvement, either personal or professional. In these relationships, we can closely observe all of the signals that person is sending out, so we can try to identify what they are feeling. Once we feel we can estimate what they are feeling, we can then adjust our behavior to be of help to them in their state. For example, if we sense that a friend is feeling stressed and overwhelmed, we can speak softly and slowly. We can offer to put aside what we are working on and offer to help, or even just listen while our friends vents. Dr. Cremone shows us how to apply these skills to our extended family members, which are inherently more difficult because these relatives we don’t interact with as often as our immediate family members. By focusing specifically on their behaviors, we can figure out how best to respond to them in a way that builds the relationship. Professional relationships are especially tricky, because we want to stay within the lines of professionalism. Agin, emotional intelligence comes to our rescue. Again, we want to focus on the clues our bosses and co-workers are giving us that help us to respond to them in the most helpful way possible. Dr. Cremone even helps us to practice our emotional intelligence in groups, and not just one-on-one. Dr. Cremone has written an insightful book on emotional intelligence that is packed with exercises and mini “assignments” to help anyone develop a deeper sensibility of how to relate to just about anyone. ***Limited Edition***
