Book Review: How We Decide
I’ve always known that a marketing message should “connect” with your prospective customer’s emotions. The traditional explanation has been that emotions truly rule the decision making process. This book explains why this mantra isn’t quite right.

How to Increase Sales Using a Goal Achievement Mentality Instead of a Goal Setting One
Many sales professionals set a lot of sales goals from daily to weekly to monthly to quarterly to yearly. Yet many businesses still have faltering to less than stellar sales. So what is the reason for this gap between desires or wants and actual results?

DOES A LACK OF EQ IMPACT PROFESSIONAL GOALS?
Emotions limit our intellectual ability and sabotage our best interests! It is not a question of education & skill that will make the difference in professional achievement & success; it is a question of access. It is about our ability to access that part of the brain where this learning is stored in times of tension, ambiguity and change. Scientific research is clear, emotions come before thought. We feel before we think. Why is this important to understand? Our Emotional Brain or site of emotional memory has the power to flood our processing center, the Thinking Brain or site of IQ and working memory. What happens? It is like our brains computer crashes!

Friend or Foe the Importance of Creating Great First Impressions
We often refer to the brain as having two hemispheres: the left, largely responsible for logic, and the right, predominately responsible for creativity. This description fits what we know to be the cortex or new brain; however, there is a third dimension, the hypo-thalamus or pre-historic brain, which is in fact the brain stem and is solely responsible for instincts.

Why Change Is So Hard
A single human brain is estimated to have the switching capacity of the entire U.S. telephone network.It can hold up to 100 trillion bits of information, dwarfing the capacity of any computer ever developed yet. But the brain can act as a prison unless we learn how to control it. The brain can, and often does, lick us into automatic perceptions and behaviors that are inaccurate, ineffective, or downright destructive. How the human brain works is worth noting if we want to change.

The Tao of Change - Zen and the Art of Change Management
We are so naturally focused on the "left brain", structured, analytical aspect of change and how we manage it - it's as though it's our hard-wired default setting. Maybe there is another dimension, to how we interact with change - a more "right brain" approach that allows us to experience a wider view and that demands a high level of self-awareness and emotional intelligence? Could it be that how we are, is as important as how we do it?
Behavioural Intelligence - Deepening Your Understanding of Different Behaviours
Behavioural Intelligence is an essential tool for managers, leaders, facilitators and negotiators. It is, quite literally, the embodiment of Emotional Intelligence. What you say or do is actually much more important than what you think or feel. Your brain has the ability, primarily through the pre-frontal cortex, to help you choose what to do next rather than just react out of animal instinct or emotional irrationality.
Is Gambling Worth the Risk?
Women gamble on an emotional level, if they are feeling excited, depressed, stressed out or lonely. Beware. It is also not a means to build a retirement savings. The house always wins. Did you know that your brain chemicals change when you are gambling? The same brain chemicals are triggered just as if you used drugs or alcohol. This is what gets and keeps people hooked on gambling.
How the Economy Affects Your Brain
Its a well known fact among the Mental Science community that chronic stress can actually alter brain anatomy. Stress (depression, fear, etc.) may cause specific areas of the brain to shrink in size. As the brain areas shrink, their functions (brain chemical secretions and electrical impulses) are altered. This anatomical adaptation to stress will ultimately affect how a person thinks, behaves, and reasons. In other words, changes in the brain due to stress, makes us less able to think of logical solutions to our problems. In addition to the irrational problem solving capacity produced by stress, the actual brain cells will change according to your thoughts.

What is Emotional Intelligence?
The brains wiring makes us emotional creatures. Our first reaction to any event is always emotional. We have no control over this part of the process. We can, however, control the thoughts that follow an emotion, how we react, and what we say and do.
