"The Art of Leading Yourself" is a superb book that teaches you how to discover this powerful tool within and apply it personally, publicly and professionally.' - Stephen R. Covey. Intellect and technical know-how alone can't get you where you want to be, but combine them with the power of Emotional Intelligence and you become unstoppable.

You will discover how to use your emotions, your gut feelings, to improve and guide your logical thinking and your actions. The results can be truly amazing. As you become aware of your feelings, you recognise and overcome obstacles; create fulfilling relationships; motivate yourself and inspire others; become a true leader, not a follower; full of case studies, exercises and practical advice, "The Art of Leading Yourself" will help you identify what you really want out of life and then develop the emotional tools to ensure you achieve those desires.

Nokkuð góð bók, hvetjandi og gagnleg.

Randi B. Noyes states the obvious in this book. It is helpful for people who don't feel they have control about their lives. One can summarize her telling with the phrase 'Be in the center of your own painting". She continuously tells about people she met, or helped during her sessions. This makes it an easy read, but also becomes a boring story with lot of redundancy. I didn't learn much from her book. Also most of her works is inspired upon Christian values. She does state that she is keeping it secular. But from her underlying assumptions you feel her religious roots. All in all, it was a little inspiring, but not life changing book.

The techniques presented in the book might seem too simple to be efficient, but they were exactly what I needed this autumn. Randi really hit the nail on the head, and reading this book helped me get through a personal struggle.
