Most people have a vision for their lives that they’re not pursuing, or pursuing yet somehow falling short. This vision can be modest or grand. It may involve breaking free of a destructive habit, finding a healthy relationship, or changing the world. Here, Raphael Cushnir, a leading voice in personal and professional development, reveals that when people aren’t living their dreams it’s because they’re not yet willing and able to feel specific emotions related to those dreams. Once we access and understand these emotions, our dreams can and will come true. Cushnir asserts that mere emotional awareness, commonly referred to as emotional intelligence, is not enough. For maximum benefit we must directly and consistently connect with our emotions–in particular, emotions we routinely avoid, resist, or attempt to dismiss. These emotions possess the key to our greatest goals, and learning to connect with them is a rarely taught but essential skill.–From publisher description.
