it was ok
bookshelves: the-great-shelf-of-meh, psychology-selfhelp, not-my-cup-of-tea

It was okay. I can't decide if my feelings on this book are mixed or simply non-existent. The concept was interesting, but it didn't bring anything new to the table, i learned nothing ! it's all about how communication is the key, how we should treat other people When they disagree with us, how we should talk less and listen more.... blah blah blah

in three quotes, i can sum up this book:

“The greatest discovery of any generation is that a human can alter his life by altering his attitude.”�
.
“If you can change your mind, you can change your life.�

“Whenever you're in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.�

All quotes by William James.

while reading this "Self-help book'' suddenly i remembered George carlin's funny list of people who ought to be killed

"List of the people who ought to be killed...Starting with these people who read self help books…why do so many people need help?! Life is not that complicated. You get up, you go to work, eat three meals, you take one good shit and you go back to bed. What’s the fucking mystery?!

And the part I really don’t understand, if you’re looking for self help, why would you read a book, written by somebody else?! That’s not self help, that’s help!

There’s no such a thing as self help…if you did it yourself, you didn’t need help. You did it yourself!"


-George Carlin
