Confession time: I love reading/watching/listening to self-help content. I am constantly looking for new ways to approach the big areas of my life (relationships, career/school, etc) and get excited when I find something that speaks to me and I can actually use. Now, there are a lot of woo woo things out there that are rather hokey and that I don’t give much credence to. For example, I took a month long meditation class after hearing and reading about how essential and transformative a practice like that can be. Yet, it just wasn’t for me. I didn’t find myself deriving any benefit from it, and it actually was more of a source of frustration than inspiration.
There can often be a negative stigma associated with the “self-help” industry. I prefer to think of it as strategy and motivation and a way to continually improve your processes and, hence, your life. Today, I’ve collected my favorite (free!) resources for you to check out. While they may not all speak to you (like me and meditation), I hope that some will and that you will seek out what works for you!
