Title: Scam Books
Post by aminericher on Sep 6^th, 2014, 2:26pm

After trying to read many self help ebooks and getting nowehre, I switched to learning online business.. I felt that all the self helf industry is just a business to help them get money.. They all repeat the same concepts and in the disclaimer they guarantee no results .
I know that they have good intentions and that they want to help, but I feel frustrated.
What do you think?

I don't think they have good intentions nor that they want to help. Or even if they do have good intentions, the road to hell is paved with them, and psychobabble never really helped anyone. But mostly I think they like helping themselves to your money.

I'd invest in some good pop-psychology books to help you get to grip with the fact that people are weird and that you're people, so you're weird. And then accept that.
Helped me tons.

I agree with at some point. We all need to learn these things practically rather than reading books need to go out and start doing experiments.
