Emotional success : the motivational power of gratitude, compassion and pride
DeSteno, David2018
Books
This text is an exploration of harnessing the practical power of using positive emotion to impact decision making. Current models promote suppressing emotion and using willpower as a means of self-control which, DeSteno argues, is not viable in the long term. With comparisons to well-known studies and a balance of hard research and popular culture examples, it calls for a paradigm shift in the way in which we talk about the effect of responding emotionally.
