Summary

The former Microsoft CEO and an executive coach trained by Zig Ziglar share their business philosophy of balancing IQ with emotional intelligence. 
 
Rick Belluzzo and Krish Dhanam offer their “Lessons from the Boardroom to the Break Room” based on their extensive experience with companies such as Microsoft, Hewlett Packard, Quantum, and the Zig Ziglar Corporation. This little book captures their wisdom in capsule form, designed to guide readers along the path to a point where IQ meets EQ and quality of life results. When head and heart, skill and will, and strategic formula and emotional foundation merge, leaders can excel professionally and personally, and organizational cultures become more dynamic and productive. 
 
“Running a successful business requires IQ and EQ (emotional intelligence) because decisions affect people . . . With a business world where change is the new normal, you need EQ and IQ to prosper.” —The Dallas Morning News 
 
“Rick Belluzzo and Krish Dhanam are living embodiments of their brand of leadership philosophy . . . [they] believe it is imperative that executives not only be able to steer their companies through these times of trouble, but also effectively communicate the need to change and their vision for doing so to employees.” —Trinidad & Tobago Guardian

Success is attracted, not forced. Success is looking for a good place to stay. What does it boils down to? It’s all in the power of your positive thinking. By having positive thoughts, you are sending a message to the universe that “Hey! Give Me More, I Can Handle It!”. That message can also be negative, which will return to you later like a boomerang. The power of positive thinking is endless, and it’s tightly linked to the power of attraction. 
The benefits of positive thinking could be also felt physically. Stress could be reduced, depression could be prevented, the risk of having heart diseases diminishes, and even a simple cold can’t resist it. With the book “The Power of Positive Thinking” you will learn how to change your mindset in order to attract happiness, positive energy, abundance, and wealth. 
 “People Who Accomplish Great Things Are Aware of the Negative. However, They Give All Their Mental Energy to the Positive” – Bob Proctor  
Think about it for a while: When you are ill and think that you won’t get better, your illness will surely get worse. But if you think you will be better, your condition will improve. This is not some kind of hocus pocus magic. There was an experiment done which gave 3 groups of patients. 1 with real pills, 1 with pills without any medicine (fake pill basically) and 1 without any medicine. The improvement of people who are the real pills are almost identical to those who are the “fake pill”!
