Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ by Daniel Goleman is an awesome book. I really believe that it is a must read for everyone who wants to become successful.

Emotional Intelligence really helps to understand that success especially financial success is not about your IQ (even though many people believe this) but that it is about your EQ and Daniel Goleman states a lot that Emotional Intelligence is something that you can train something that you can get better in.

I think that especially the findings of some studies about IQ vs Emotional Intelligence are very interesting.
They found things that really blew my mind:
"people with average IQs outperform
people with high IQs 70% of the time"
and
"Emotional Intelligence is the single most important factor
to predict life success, that it has zero correlation with IQ,
and is the strongest driver of leadership and personal excellence."
and
“You can be a top performer without emotional intelligence, but the chances are slim. Naturally, people with a high degree of emotional intelligence make more money— an average of $29,000 more per year than people with a low degree of emotional intelligence. The link between emotional intelligence and earnings is so direct that every point increase in emotional intelligence adds $1,300 to an annual salary.” [Quote from a Forbes article]

Also, I am a little bit confused and wonder if there is a reason why Emotional Intelligence isn't taught in any schools. If you know why please let me know in the comments. I read every comment.

Emotional Intelligence is one of the books I recommend to read back to back because there are no filler stories and it is really dense with Information (unlike many other books nowadays)

★★★ EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE BACK COVER ★★★
Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our "two minds"—the rational and the emotional—and how they together shape our destiny.

Through vivid examples, Goleman delineates the five crucial skills of emotional intelligence and shows how they determine our success in relationships, work, and even our physical well-being. What emerges is an entirely new way to talk about being smart.

The best news is that "emotional literacy" is not fixed early in life. Every parent, every teacher, every business leader, and everyone interested in a more civil society has a stake in this compelling vision of human possibility.


★★★ Other great books from the Daniel Goleman ★★★
I read Emotional Intelligence something like 8years ago, loved it and read some more books from Daniel Goleman:

►Vital Lies, Simple Truths: The Psychology of Self Deception - [Awesome Book! Read this if you like books like "Thinking Fast and Slow"]

►Primal Leadership: The Hidden Driver of Great Performance - [definitely a great read for Entrepreneurs and I highly recommend to read it BEFORE you hire someone]

►Social Intelligence: The New Science of Social Relationships
[this is a must read if you liked Emotional Intelligence - Many people don't know about this book because Emotional Intelligence gets all the fame :) but I really believe that this book is even more profound than Emotional Intelligence and that everyone should read this: http://amzn.to/2vsOWUi
