Self-help books are books written with the stated intention to instruct any readers on a number of personal problems. They take their name from Self-Help, the Victorian best-seller, but are also known and classified under "self-improvement", a term that is a modernized version of self-help. They moved from a niche position to being a postmodern cultural phenomenon in the late twentieth century - a...
The closet is a great metaphor to help us understand what has held us back in the past. Your subconscious mind is like a closet that stores old beliefs, memories, limitations, guilt, fears, doubts, and programming. If your closet is full of old stuff that doesn't fit, wasn't your "stuff" to begin with, and that doesn't support you, all that old junk will keep popping up and out to block you from getting...

Self-help books tend to elicit a strong response from devotees and detractors alike. I admit I’m not a great fan of the genre in general. My chief complaint is that many offer little more than the claims made by fad diets. Instead, they repackage common sense, with the intention of bilking desperate people out of their money. Like fad diets, we pretty much know better. But we’re lured by the idea...
"Humility—the acceptance that being human is good enough—is the embrace of ordinariness." —underlined by David Foster Wallace in his copy of Ernest Kurtz's The Spirituality of Imperfection. "True heroism is minutes, hours, weeks, year upon year of the quiet, precise, judicious exercise of probity and care—with no one there to see or cheer. This is the world." —David Foster Wallace, The Pale...
Law of Attraction:“People's thoughts (both conscious and unconscious) dictate the reality of their lives, whether they're aware of it or not.

All of us, from time to time during the course of our lives, endure some personal trauma.

Chapter 1: HOW WE GOT HERE—WHEREVER HERE IS If you’re reading it in a book, folks, it ain’t self-help. It’s help. —Comedian George Carlin As a concept, self-help is no Tony-come-lately. The term self-help was not coined as a synonym for psychobabble. It has a long and rich tradition of usage in connection with far more reputable practices in the realm of law. Legal self-help refers to a raft...
