010: When & Why Self-Help Fails

from Consciously Speaking · host Michael Neeley

In this, our first Sunday episode, your host, Michael Neeley will take you on a discovery of the reasons why your efforts at personal development (self-help) have fallen short or missed the mark. While the self-improvement genre continues to grow by leaps and bounds, do you ever wonder why people keep devouring the material. Wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that if the books (or workshops or seminars) were working, that we wouldn't need to ever buy another self-help book again? YET, statistics have proven otherwise. From his work in the development of his book, The Art of Forgetting, Michael has distilled the challenge down to three basic elements, which he shares in this podcast episode.
