I dislike the word 'self-help.' Self-awareness, yes, but not self-help.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not a great believer in self-help.
I'm not a fan of self-help books - how can something be 'self-help' if the book itself is purportedly helping you?
Self-awareness is the ability to take an honest look at your life without any attachment to it being right or wrong, good or bad.
Is it possible to have negative self-awareness?
I don't usually read self-help books, but I read a great book by a guy called Wayne Dyer: 'The Power of Intention,' which I loved.
I never read a self-help book except for the Bible.
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, 'Where's the self-help section?' She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
So many self-help ideas are like meringue - you take a big bite, and there's nothing there.
I've always been a very self-aware person.
I do believe in self-help.
