With so many self-help books on the market, finding the right one can be a problem in itself. But fear not. Here is our top five pick of the best self improvement books which may well change your outlook — if not your life.
How to pick the best book for you
Have you found yourself searching the internet for “the best self improvement books”, and found the endless results overwhelming? Unfortunately, not all self-help books are created equal. Some are a collection of recycled information regurgitated in a non-inspiring way. Some promise the world but actually deliver very little.
Here are three tips for selecting the best book for you:
- This first tip may sound obvious, but look for a book that focuses on the challenge or problem that you want to address.
- Consider whether the author(s) is credible. For example, a book which promises to help you achieve financial success, written by someone going through multiple bankruptcy’s is a potential red flag.
- Look for a book written in a style that’s suitable for your particular needs.
