Do self-help books really helps us?
After a rewarding vacation that had stretched for two months, I was again at the airport with a stuffed bag and a heavy heart. With the long layovers and travelling alone, I had decided to read a book, and that book that had changed me in many ways, it helped me see the world in a new light which was what I needed at that moment. I read my first self-help book earlier this year when I knew I had to make major changes in my life and to be fair I was physically unhealthy, mentally ill and quite pathetic. I knew enough was enough; that I wasn’t going to allow myself to spend every night loathing myself and waking up feeling miserable. I decided to make a change. I watched countless videos on YouTube and listened to podcast on topics like “the best morning routine”, “5 routines that could change your life”, “The 8 habits of highly successful people” and the list could go on and one but more or less it stayed the same. I was on the road to be a better person
