In a society that is overly driven by intelligence, speed, and productivity, the emotional sphere is often neglected. But as Travis Bradberry's audiobook "Emotional IntelligenceHabits" shows, our success—personal as well as professional— relies largely on emotional intelligence (EI). Better relationships, better decision-making, and a better sense of well-being emerge from our recognition, understanding, and management of our emotions as well as those of others.

This audiobook guides the listener on a first hand tour into the subject of emotional intelligence, providing practical recommendations for enhancing emotional intelligence through the formation of specific behaviors. Bradberry explains emotional intelligence theory and provides simple, easy-to-implement techniques for acquiring and enhancing these habits.

The review will discuss the core concepts within Emotional IntelligenceHabits, my own personal reflections and lessons, and why I believe this audiobook is transformative for anyone eager to improve their own emotional intelligence and quality of life.

Emotional Intelligence Habits' basic premise is that our emotional habits influence our behavior, relationships with others, and our identity. Healthy emotional habits allow us to improve our emotional intelligence, enhance our decision-making ability, enable more successful connections with others, and allow us live healthier and happier lives. Bradberry presents emotional intelligence as a skill that calls for deliberate effort and awareness. Unlike qualities related to IQ, emotional intelligence can grow with time by forming the right habits.
