Emotional Mastery (Toolkit for Success) by Navana Kundu is a well-researched and well-executed book on emotional intelligence. Yes, it is a self-help book that aims to take you towards emotional mastery through tips, tricks, and strategies and much more. But before anyone heads up for emotional mastery, it is imperative to know what emotions can do for us or in our life. Emotions are powerful, they attract, they repel, they build, and they destroy. It is the emotions that control our overall life from judgment to perspective to decision making and in between everything.

himself.”
