Come along to explore self-help books with others at the Library!

Self-help books are some of the most popular and most borrowed books of all genres. People love to read about how they can improve their health, their attitudes and their lives in general. So many people read self-improvement books, but how many actually attempt to put some of what they've read into practice?

This reading group aims to do just that - help you help yourself by discussing ways in which theory can be put into practice.

Our choice for November is Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman.

What if success isn’t defined by IQ, but by how well you understand and manage emotions?

Join us as we explore Emotional Intelligence, the groundbreaking international bestseller by Daniel Goleman that transformed how we think about intelligence, success, and human potential.

Challenging the idea that IQ is the key to achievement, this influential book reveals how emotional intelligence, our ability to recognise, understand, and manage emotions, plays a far greater role in shaping our lives, relationships, and careers.

In this session, we’ll unpack the core components of emotional intelligence and how they impact the way we think, behave, and connect with others.

You’ll discover how emotional intelligence can help you:

• Develop greater self-awareness and emotional control

• Improve communication and navigate difficult conversations

• Build stronger, more meaningful relationships

• Strengthen resilience, motivation, and decision-making

• Thrive both personally and professionally

Blending psychology, neuroscience, and practical insight, Emotional Intelligence offers a powerful framework for understanding what truly drives success and how these skills can be developed at any stage of life.
