This book, “Making the Irrational Rational: Grow, Heal, and Contribute Using the New Emotional Intelligence” by Dr. Judith Sheleg, is centered on the practical application of the New Emotional Intelligence in real-life situations. The author employs this technique with seven protagonists within the same organization, leading to a significant paradigm shift in their lives, behavior, and work performance within a span of three months. Through the journey of emotional intelligence, these individuals experience personal growth and healing and make substantial contributions to their organization and those around them.

Each protagonist faces unique challenges, rooted in different reasons. Using the Soul Selfie Snapshot (SSS) program, the author effectively identifies and addresses these individual difficulties. Readers will gain insights into how each participant transitions from a state of low performance to becoming a top performer while also learning the new emotional intelligence techniques outlined in the book.

The narrative begins with Malka, the CEO of the Pharm Tamaguchi Israeli branch, who expresses dissatisfaction with her team's failure to increase sales of a new product and their inability to align with the organization's sales objectives. This situation creates a sense of depleted energy and intensifies unhappiness within the team. Seeking guidance, Malka consults with Dr. Jud, who introduces her to the Soul Selfie Snapshot (SSS) technique. Through this transformative approach, both Malka and the organization undergo positive personal changes, leading to the success of the organization.

This 144-page book is divided into three parts and ten chapters, offering readers a structured approach to understanding and applying the concepts outlined by the author, Dr. Jud. The narrative style, coupled with practical instructions, makes the content accessible and engaging. Dr. Jud's technique is clearly articulated and relatable, allowing readers to grasp the concepts easily and apply them in their own lives.

I appreciate how Dr. Jud demonstrates the effectiveness of her techniques by administering them to multiple individuals, illustrating their universal applicability. Each chapter and page serves a purpose in achieving the desired goal of personal growth and transformation.
Overall, I found the book fascinating and educational, with no aspects to dislike. It effectively combines storytelling with practical guidance, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to enhance their emotional intelligence and personal development.

The book's exceptional editing, coupled with its insightful exploration of human emotions and productivity, makes it a standout read. I found no errors, and the lessons learned are invaluable. I wholeheartedly rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. I highly recommend it to leaders, psychologists, teachers, and anyone seeking positive transformation in their personal and professional lives.
