Anyway, I’m going to download the papers & see if I can improve on my AQ.

The poems on your blog are really nice--small and sweet. <b>Anu: </b> AQ concept has been around for a few years. Many big organizations give training on AQ to their employees. You can download a couple of white papers that will give you an overview of AQ from the <a href="http://www.peaklearning.com/downloads.html">Download section</a> of Peak Learning Inc. More about AQ can be got from the following two books: 1. Adversity Quotient @ Work: Make Everyday Challenges the Key to Your Success--Putting the Principles of AQ into Action by Paul G. Stoltz (William Morrow, ISBN: 068817759X) 2. Adversity Quotient: Turning Obstacles into Opportunities by Paul G. Stoltz (Wiley, ISBN: 0471344133) You are right about the need facing small setbacks and learning to cope with them during childhood. The most pampered and protected children are the ones who find it most difficult to face failures and setbacks. So it is better to give responsibilities, duties and opportunities so that they get experience and can learn from their failures and successes. <b>-poison-:</b> Thank you buddy James Bright: Thanks.
