by Harold Sala
“Emotions are to life what pigment is to paint—they make life bright and beautiful or dark and dreary. What’s the difference? It’s a matter of whether they work for you or against you. A balanced understanding of their power, their potential, and, in some cases, how they negatively impact your life allows them to enhance your life and brighten your future. Making Your Emotions Work for You is a practical guide to emotional health and happiness.”
