Description
The Upside of Your Dark Side: Unlocking the Power of Your Whole Self Happiness experts have long told us to focus on positivity and optimism. But researchers Todd Kashdan and Robert Biswas-Diener disagree. They argue that positive emotions alone are not enough, and that our negative emotions can actually be a powerful motivator. Anger can make us creative, selfishness can make us brave, and guilt can drive us to succeed. By embracing our full range of emotions, we can develop emotional agility and achieve greater success and fulfillment. Drawing on extensive scientific research and real-life examples, this book provides a fresh perspective on the importance of emotional intelligence. Whether you're a business leader, parent, or simply looking to improve your own life, this book offers practical insights and tools to help you unlock your full potential.
