Hi Sid,

Thanks for your sharing.

My 1st date with self help books is "How to win friends". It has helped me transformed my life :).

Later on, I've more dates with other personal development books. And here are my Best self help books sharing for friends.

Hey ATP,

Thanks for your comment! I have "The Four Agreements" in my someday queue on
Amazon. My wishlist that seems to always get bigger, no matter how fast I
read =). I have read some summaries of it and seen a presentation on the
four agreements in the book - but I am sure one takes away more by reading
the book as a whole.

I'll have to put The Celestine Prophecy/Vision on my someday list to check
out as well =). Thanks so much for the recommendation - I always love
finding new books to inspire/motivate me and to learn from!

"The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz

I haven't heard of the Dip before, or Mandino's book. I did read Carengie's years ago, and it was great!

I honestly found The Celestine Prophecy series to be really great: easy reading since it's written as a story, and providing a common frame of reference to base almost everything else on, including conversations with others. It's a common base for everything else, and it's ongoing, growing & active:

Hi Alec,
I actually have a draft of it saved, I just didn't want to publish it too
soon since I like the focus of my site to be articles, and not products ;).
I'll polish it up and put it out there soon, I have another product review
coming up so that's going to push it back!

Hi Sid,

Just wanted to follow up - am still working through the scrolls one month at a time. Am on scroll 3 now.

When's that follow up post planned with more book suggestions? Some of us are waiting expectantly. :)

I'll throw another one into the list. The Bible. Many of the modern “self-help” and so-called personal development books use some decidedly Biblical principles in them. As well as some very unBiblical principles but you get the idea.
