134: Is Self Help Selfish? (Part 1 of a 2 Part Series)

Want to improve your relationships? Having trouble sleeping? Feeling stuck in your career? Coping with grief? Looking to hone your leadership skills?   If you're like many people, you'll try to find the answers to these questions and other problems in your life by browsing Google or heading over to the self-help aisles of your favorite bookstore or let's be honest -- cruising on Amazon. Self-improvement books now account for billions of dollars a year in the U.S. alone. Approximately one-third to one-half of adults in the U.S. have purchased a self-improvement book at least once in their lifetime. That includes yours truly! :-)   Most of us wish we could improve certain things about ourselves. But change that sticks around is difficult. Many of our habits are deeply ingrained, and certain core personality traits may be fixed for good. Don't let that discourage you from making changes, though -- Honestly, it's never too late to change if change is what you truly want! With effort and determination, it is possible to be the person you want to be.   As the great Englishwoman of letters George Eliot once said,  "It is never too late to be who you might have been."   Here at PYP, we say right on to that!   So, is self help selfish? I don't think so, but… tune in to hear why I reach that conclusion!   Follow PYP on Twitter Build your brain and improve your game! Subscribe to the Find Your Football Newsletter today :-)
