Self Help Books - article about Self Help Books

Have you ever noticed that it practically takes a self help book just to navigate through the self help books at the bookstore? With all the self help books out there, how can you find the one that you are looking for? Is there any way to be sure that the one you found is what you need? With all these questions, I am sure you understand why I might be trying to get my hands on some self help books. It seems, in much the same way as most things, that there is too much superfluous junk out there and a very small supply of quality products.

I am sure that many self help books claim to address several issues but I propose that there needs to be a self help encyclopedia that combines all the approaches found in self help books. This way, a reader could compare approaches and possibly find one that works even though it was originally designed for a problem completely unlike the one they are experiencing.

I would take a crack at writing this book myself but I am afraid I would need some assistance. Does anybody know if there are any self help books out there that teach the reader how to write self help books? The thing that confused me most about the section at the bookstore is that none of the books focused on becoming more psychologically healthy by refusing to buy into the notion that you have a problem. None of the books seemed to teach self confidence. They all train people how to behave in the ways that other people want them to. For example, why is being overweight perceived as going hand in hand with some psychological problem? If you enjoy food, is there really anything wrong with you or are you perhaps just honest about who you are and what you like?

Wouldn't a real self help book teach you how to think and solve problems on your own? They all seem to give you a rigid plan of attack for the problem du jour. Are there any of these books that help you understand why you have a problem in the first place? Most of the books at my local bookstore seemed to deal with problems that are identified by people that the reader is surrounded by. Perhaps buying into the idea that it is unacceptable to have faults or imperfections is the biggest problem that people need help with.
