Emotional Intelligence 2.0
Summary
Have you ever had a situation in which you struggled to understand something from the other person’s perspective, and in failing to consider that perspective, you entirely missed the point and ended up in an argument? Perhaps you and your spouse had conflicting needs and neither was willing to concede. Perhaps you failed to empathize with your child, who broke into tears when you seemed emotionally indifferent toward the plight that threatened to overwhelm. Maybe you did not care to see the perspective of a coworker, and the two of you ended up clashing, saying things you regretted after the fact, and locked in a conflict that disturbed the office dynamic. No matter the specific scenario, if you struggle to understand other people’s perspectives, you could be struggling with a very important set of skills that dictate how we behave with other people and respond to emotions: Emotional intelligence. Every time you interact with people, you use a combination of skills that fit within five categories. These skills either make or break you - leading to you either interacting quite well, meshing with those people around you, and earning rapport and respect, or causing you to fail the interactions altogether by behaving in ways that are not socially acceptable. You may have lost your temper, failed to empathize with the other person, or simply just came across as unpleasant. If you struggle through your social interactions on a regular basis, you could need to strengthen your emotional intelligence. If this sounds like you or someone you know, this guide is here for you! With a combination of easily understood explanations, relatable examples, and several charts to simplify concepts, this guide seeks to guide you on your journey toward developing better emotional intelligence skills.

Deception
Summary
A quartet's heist built on vengeance is detoured by greed, love, murder, and ulterior motives.
Topeka, Kansas, is home to the Zveds, a notorious group of wealthy hit men who aren't afraid to make bold moves if it means saving themselves. Billy Lewis, a local cop working for his father, knows that first hand. After his father is killed, Billy is forced to take the reins of caring for his well-meaning but mentally unstable brother, Frank.
When Billy stumbles upon Alicia Diaz - a mysterious, benevolent, and beautiful Cuban immigrant - they join forces to conspire to steal enough money from the Zveds to live out their days in hiding, all the while going after the heart of the matter: vengeance for the death of Billy's father.
George Sanders is simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. A lifelong resident of Topeka and with no family or close friends, George is longing for companionship. When he is swept off his feet and seduced by a voluptuous outsider, he thinks he's been given the gift he's always dreamed of. But what he doesn't realize is that his worst nightmare is yet to come.
Weeks later, after not having heard from her since their one night rendezvous, George is faced with a life-changing dilemma, and it's one in which he can't let pass him by. With the promise of being able to walk away with all that he's ever wanted, George agrees to do the unthinkable.
Plotting and actually stealing the money from the Zveds is one thing, but when something goes terribly wrong and their cover is blown, a battle for survival ensues. Between seeking revenge, fighting for family, and a boiling love triangle filled with sexual tension and ulterior motives, not everyone is guaranteed to make it out alive.

Came Madness to Me
Summary
There are other worlds all around us. Every day, there are near brushes with those worlds, though we rarely know it. Sometimes, the bubbles of existence that compromise everything we know and don't know come close enough to collide. Sometimes they merge and become defined as each other. Those other worlds can be seen in the abrupt acts of violence perpetrated upon the unsuspecting. It can be as simple as the sudden, darker aspects of the people we encounter in our lives. Those other worlds can be glimpsed in the random moments of impossibility we seem fated to encounter. Our lives are constantly on the precipice of sanity and reason. As are these tales.

Accidental Warrior
Summary
"A rousing what-if look at a decidedly different America persuasively stuck in a historical past.” (Kirkus Reviews) A college party lands freshman Hal Christianson in an America that could have been: no smartphones, no cars, no flush toilets. What he finds is a squabbling bunch of states, the consequence of the colonies having grown up on their own after European civilization collapsed from plague in the 1670s, and they are poised on the brink of war. For a socially awkward young man who takes refuge in online games, this is a bad situation. He has no knowledge or experience that is useful in this world. He does, however, have one skill of value in a world where the rifle is a new invention: He is a competitive fencer. What do you do when the world is strange and you have no way to control your own fate? Can Hal grow up fast enough to survive in this world and can he find a way home?

Get a F--king Life
Summary
Every individual is born with tremendous talents and abilities that can’t be defined by any traditional schooling or parent-motivated suggestion. If the highest-educated national scholar you know recommended the highest ideals for your life, they would still miss the potential of your capabilities by a country mile. Everyone sees success in a different light. Some people seek to grow their income to a level where it is no longer important. Others want to eliminate the idea of money as a controller of their lives, preferring personal peace as a constant state of being. And yet, others desire a solid family and being surrounded by great friends, which makes life worth living. Then we turn to motivational books and seminars to help us achieve these goals, but these prosperity-mimicking religions are just as dangerous as gambling all of your money at a Vegas poker table in hopes of a winning return. Today, we find that the driving force of motivation tools and motivating speakers has been revealed to be more damaging to the human psyche than any other drug. In this audiobook, the author shows us that traditional motivation is little more than an addictive dopamine rush that, when drained away in low times, forces its hosts back to dependency instead of freeing them to pursue personal growth and development. Promoting employees to engage doggedly in a field they are not cut out for aids society. It insists that every person who was born with a specific talent must remain in a trapped existence where their missed glory of excellence is just bearable enough to stay in the game. They are unhealthy to us in their running up and down to a new fad of prosperity, only to achieve for us a new low after the one we had before the belief took hold. Motivational theology is ill-advised because it seeks, like all other religions and addictions, to add something to the body that is foreign to its creation, as opposed to drawing out the abundance that is already there and yet hidden. This is not about adding any new type of feel-good dogma or theology to your life to magically make it better. This audiobook is more about dropping the phony-baloney bullshit that we were taught as children and that ultimately limited our success in what we could visibly see or minimally imagine for ourselves. The most average person to ever listen to this book is far more astounding than they could ever give themselves credit for, due to the conditioning and setbacks of their upbringing. Who we believe ourselves to be with our minds and what we desire for our souls with our hearts becomes our greatest unaccomplished dream. Instead of true internal empowerment, many of us go through our daily routines living out our parents’ unaccomplished dreams of the past and placing our true desires on hold for the next generation to discover. Instead of having a life where you run out of days before it runs out of you, we pass strangers on the way to work pretending they are where they want to be in life. In actuality, keeping faith with the employment facade means that this job is doing more to take years from my life than adding value to my bank account. We are returning home to partners that we don’t particularly care for and staying in neighborhoods we are hardly satisfied with. And we fear that our children won’t make any better of the future than we are having now.

Starman's Saga: The Long, Strange Journey of Leif the Lucky
Summary
This is the story of Leif Grettison, a crew member of humanity’s first flight to the stars, even though he had not expected to take that trip. The year is 2069. The Troubles, a decade plus of proxy, and direct warfare among the US, Russia, and China, had brought the world to the brink of apocalypse. It was close enough to finally scare the leaders of the powers into signing the Geneva Treaties, a set of agreements pledging peace, cooperation, and the dismantling of the military complexes. A centerpiece of this is the International Space Commission, organized to promote business in space to serve the world and to launch the starshot as a rallying point for all humanity. The pilots of the mission are drawn from each of the three major powers while the crew is comprised of the best and brightest scientists the world has to offer. However, political expediency has played a role in the assembly of the crew and they are riven by academic jealousy, personal dislikes, and the same political and ethnic animosities that produced the Troubles. Leif is the only member of the crew who is neither a scientist nor an engineer. He is the winner of the BerthRight Lottery, a publicity stunt to send an “everyman volunteer” to the stars. He is a US Army veteran who saw much combat in the Troubles. When he meets one of the pilots, Captain Yang Yong who flew for the PLA Air Force during the Troubles, they both have the same immediate reaction: Hate at first sight. However, an interstellar mission far away from Earth’s help faces many hazards, foreseen and unforeseen, and the return home carries an insidious danger of its own. Handling these threats requires skills that are not in the realm of science. If the crew is to reach their destination and return alive, Soldier-boy Leif and Fly-girl Yong will need to figure out how to work together. That is, if they don’t kill each other first.
