Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Inocencia

After I read Dr. Daniel Goleman's landmark book, Emotional Intelligence, and people started referring to the concept as "EQ," I began to make a mental list of the major influences on our lives. Research convincingly demonstrates that EQ is more important than IQ in achieving success in our personal life and in our work life, but in what ways do they overlap and/or interact? What are the other major influences, and what are their relationships to IQ and EQ? Which ones have a strong influence on IQ and EQ, and which ones are largely the result of one's IQ and/or EQ? Most of the other major influences I identified could be classified under the general category of fate, or luck. The genes you received from the "genetic lottery" your parents provided, the prenatal care provided by your parents, and the childhood experiences provided by your parents and others have strongly influenced the way you are. Parental beliefs, societal beliefs, and religious beliefs you learned were strongly influenced by where you were born and when you were born. Your sex, and the fact that you were the first child, the middle child, or the baby of the family, had a strong influence. Chance encounters such as the kid across the street, the one you sat next to in homeroom, your college roommate, or your future mate could have significantly changed your life. I chose to group these other major influences under the category of the old expression "the fickle finger of fate" (F3), but I am not implying that these influences are predetermined or inevitable. I am using fate more along the lines of luck, whether good or bad, but I am not aware of an expression containing luck that would convey the meaning I wanted. Major theories dealing with personality development and personality "types" are summarized and major categories of "normal and abnormal" personalities are discussed. A separate chapter is devoted to religious beliefs since they are often major influences on our behavior and the consequences of our beliefs and behavior. In the "Religious Beliefs" chapter, I share my personal philosophy of religion, provide several examples of aboriginal religions, and attempt to summarize the seven major religions of the world. The final chapter, "What U Can Do About It", provides suggestions for self-improvement and a strategy to identify, prioritize, and accomplish your self-improvement goals. It is suggested that you will be most successful if you consider a combination of three techniques. The first is a variation of the "best practices" used in organizations to improve processes and the products and services produced by those processes. The second aide is to keep in mind the creed of Alcoholic Anonymous (AA): "God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I can not change, the Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference." The third technique is to identify the hierarchy of what you need to do that parallels Maslow's "Hierarchy of Needs."
