I read an article on The Straits Times by Cheong something. It was about how she felt that self help books did not help to enhance your lifestyle at all.
I choose to disagree with her. Why?
Self help books are written by people who have gone through all of life's trials, ardous experiences etc. Take for example, Rich Dad Poor Dad. The author definitely had experience about getting rich and wrote that book to enlighten us. Therefore we can say that people who write self help books are EXPERIENCED.
It's just like trial and error. And the suthors of self help books are just giving us the answers.
Self help books aren't all that bad, you know. You get advice on how to run your life and get the correct answers to the trial and error questions that life throws at you. So what's so bad about it?
Sure, the authors didn't succeed after they read self help books, but does it matter? no it doesn't. the most important thing is not to prove that self help books are vital but to give you advice so you know what choices to make and you won't make the wrong choices and therefore reduce the hurt you experience.
In conclusion, self help books aren't really all that bad. really.
