Benjamin Smith - 2016
This process of introspection and self-reflection is never easy. It requires the ability to understand and handle your emotions in a healthy manner, and this always takes time and patience. That is why this book, “Emotional Intelligence: Exploring the Most Powerful Intelligence Ever Discovered,” has been written just for you. This book is meant to help make the process of emotional development clearer and smoother. Our lives are filled with constant and continual situations where communication with others is necessary. Your ability to communicate effectively and successfully with others is what sets you apart from animals. However, how many of us actually take the time to think about just how important the way we communicate is? In what ways can we become better able to communicate? This would be a good time to introduce you to the concept of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence, or EI, is defined as the ability to recognize, control, and express your emotions in a way that enables you to handle interpersonal relationships empathetically and judiciously. Emotional intelligence is what enables you to recognize how others are feeling in a given situation, differentiate the myriad of emotions, and act accordingly. It is only through emotional intelligence that we are able to adjust our emotions as we go through life, thus reaching whatever goals we have set. Nobody can claim that they do not have emotional intelligence. The only difference is that people exhibit varying levels of EI – some are simply more emotionally intelligent than others. However, it is not something that is fixed from birth to death. There are steps and actions you can take to become more intelligent emotionally. In fact, if there is one feature of personal development that most people need to work on, it is their emotional intelligence. Research has proven that those individuals who have a higher emotional quotient, or EQ, tend to make better leaders, enjoy a better quality of personal and professional relationships, and are more mentally healthy. All you need to do to increase your emotional quotient is take the time to put into practice the tips and strategies outlined in this book. In here, you will learn how to know yourself better so that you can understand others better. You will learn how your emotional brain works, and how emotional intelligence can be improved. There are some great tools and tips described in this book, so make sure that you are ready to learn and practice them.

Full Moon Security: The Complete 5 Books Series
Glenna Sinclair - 2018
5 Books. Full Length. No Cliffhangers. More than 1,000 pages :) Magic and monsters are very much real, and very much a threat. Follow the shifters of Full Moon Security as they fight hard for family, friendship, and love. SAM Like all the other agents of FMS, Samuel Fitzgerald left the US Government's secretive Paranormal Research Board to focus entirely on protecting the homeland. But when Col. Harrington disappeared six months before without any word, their supernatural-focused missions seemed to have disappeared with him, and now they're stuck working plain old, boring security cases. That is, until Sam and his dragonkin boss get a call on a phone they didn't know Harrington possessed. A demon-worshiping cult has surfaced in East Texas, and it's up to him to save the small town of Potterswell, and the most beautiful coroner's assistant he's ever met: Faith Riley. CARTER Carter Grant is like any other bear shifter out there: he wants a nice tree to sharpen his claws on, some peace and quiet to keep away his memories of the war, and a mate. But when his dragonkin boss Kris Cole and FMS's resident witch Tabitha show up out of nowhere, he has a feeling they're going to take the first two from him. How was he to know their mission to stop a possession and series of murders-by-fire in the town of Shamrock would lead him to the third? Now, though, it's a race against time as Carter has to compete with a group of international hitmen who have descended on the town with the same goals in mind. These shifter hitmen may be more than Carter can handle, even with the help of Lucy Skinner, Shamrock's finest fire investigator. RYDER It started with an investigation that turned out nothing extraordinary in Philadelphia. But now Ryder Williams, panther shifter, has run over a phantasmal ghost on the highway outside Camelot, the most haunted town in the US. At least, he thinks he has! Turns out the small town is putting on some kind of music festival to celebrate the 150th anniversary of a witch cursing their town while they burned her at the stake, but not everything is as it seems. As ghosts of residents begin to revisit the living and concert-goers begin to change for some reason into shapes not normally their own, it's up to Ryder Williams and Stephanie Kaufman to save Camelot and all its residents. Not to mention the hundreds of visitors who are now stalking the streets looking for fresh meat. LUKE With Kris Cole and the elusive dragonkin shifter Hunter Jackson away from the office, Tabitha finds an old case the PRB had to ignore years before. Someone is murdering high class call girls in the small town of Prophet, Arizona. Not just any murders, either. Somehow, they're stealing their hearts without any signs of surgery! When Luke arrives on the scene, he finds the beautiful Molly Long looking for her roommate, and they're talking their way past the security gate of an exclusive club for the rich and powerful. Is this some cult, or just a deranged madman who has figured out how to tear the hearts from his victims? As the shadows lengthen, though, they'll have to race to find the killer, and to hopefully find Molly's kidnapped roommate. KRIS Kris and Hunter disappeared three months before in the northern tundra while on their search for Col. Harrington. Now, they've found what happened to him . . . and may have found their true feelings for each other, as well. Their discovery is complicated, though, by a paramilitary group striking out from the deserts of western Mexico. The group has been excavating strange Aztec ruins, but haven't yet found the weapon which will bring the mortal world to its knees and allow the supernatural to once again reign supreme. Until now.
