Who's got time to read a 300 page self help book to become a stronger person? Not me. That's why I wrote this Emotional Strength Workbook. Get into the weeds and begin seeing results. Today!Life can get you down. And once you are down, you may have heard people tell you to "keep your chin up" or "be strong" but what they really mean is that you should use your emotional strength to help yourself. This may very well be the thing you see in others that you are missing. You may be in a situation and come out of it feeling down or depressed. You might be thinking, there is a better way.The difference with this approach is that it is a targeted focused approach that brings real change because it is concentrated and focused.Instead of operating from a naïve, unsure state or a people pleasing state where you look for immediate gratification, practicing things to bring you emotional strength allows you to be stronger, more confident and less needy.¿Emotional strength is something we all must practice and strengthen so life doesn't creep up and wreck havoc. Different from psychology practices of turning a negative experience into a positive one, the core of practicing emotional intelligence is to honestly and deeply feel the emotional experience - And allow yourself to be vulnerable. This helps you open your emotional responses and change the way you understand your emotions in daily life. Just like the first time you rode a bike or tried something new. You might not have succeeded the first time, but as you did it more and more, you got better and gained confidence. When you did fall after hitting a curb or riding over loose gravel, you were able to get back on the bike again without too much trouble. Emotional strength must be practiced and maintained.This work book is designed to be re-usable and applied over and over in many areas and stages of life.
