This book was a little diffuse and not totally focused as I thought it would be on emotional intelligence- the content covers large swaths of psychology (including things like self-control and depression), which mirrors the criticism of emotional intelligence from many in the psychology community that the concept just gives a new name to a specific cluster of existing personality traits and well-established constructs. Either way, if you like psychology, you'll like the book.
“Self-awareness, in short, means being "aware of both our mood and our thoughts about that mood”
“At best, IQ contributes about 20 percent to the factors that determine life success, which leaves 80 percent to other forces. As one observer notes, "The vast majority of one's ultimate niche in society is determined by non-1Q factors, ranging from social class to luck."
SUCH a fascinating book that really opened my eyes and explained self awareness in a much brighter light. The book explains how the human brain developed and why/how our emotions came to be and tying in self-awareness into all of it. But about ~54% of the way through the book changes into child psychology which makes sense but I struggled to get through it towards the end.

Needs some updating. Newer research on brain development shows that the frontal lobe develops at much lower pace than this book suggests and is not completely developed until the early to mid twenties. Still an interesting read...

Really good introduction to the science behind the thoughts and feelings that coaching and CCL techniques are designed to target. Only a little bit of "brain surgery" at the start, and the sections on parenthood and education are very interesting. Recommended to educators of all types.
