I mean, some of these books should have been part of the courses we did in colleges.
And you are right if you think we wasted a lot of time in school, studying some irrelevant subjects.

All those subjects were outstanding in their ways. Nonetheless, I feel like we ought to have spent more time knowing ourselves.
What is more important than knowing the person you are?
Do you even realize that you spend the whole of your life with yourself?
Well, you do. And that is why you must spend most of your time discovering the person you are.

1. Scrum by Jeff Sutherland
Jeff Sutherland takes us through one of the most ignored yet very important aspects of life development.
And that must be the sprint cycle.
What does it talk about?
In it, Jeff introduces us to the sprint cycles in life.
Maybe, you’re asking, what is a sprint cycle?
A sprint cycle refers to a period, mostly two weeks when you solely focus on a single project.
When you start the project, you must finish it to the end. The finish time must also be within the set-out period.
How does it help you?
Sprint cycles should last the same period. During that period, you should aim at getting closer to achieving your dreams.
How does it work?
Let’s take for example a research you’re carrying out.
You can decide to break it into three sprints. One sprint will deal with coming up with the research theme.
The second sprint will focus on doing all the fieldwork. And lastly, the third sprint should deal with report compilation.
In essence, you will need to break all the work you need to do in three categories but still finish it within the set-out period of two weeks.
In the end, you will have done more in lesser time.
2. The Four Tendencies by Gretchen Rubin

And if you are unlucky not to have lay your hands on it, then the Four Tendencies is a perfect read for all your personal development problems.
What does it talk about?
Rubin introduces us to four life tendencies.
It is interesting to know that each one of us falls into a single life tendency.
Rubin says that the four life tendencies include:

When you get to know your tendency, you ultimately learn how to handle different life situations.
And what a feeling if you can come up with a solution for every challenge you encounter?
How does it help you?
I learned how to respond to the expectations around and within me after reading this book.
More importantly, I learned how to set up my personal goals and deal with many life pressures.

4. The Power Of Self-Discipline by Brian Tracy
Let’s agree, we all struggle with self-discipline.
Not once, not twice, but on many occasions.
You have that one habit you are trying to let go, but you keep on going back to it.
Or still, you have some work to complete within a set time but you keep on procrastinating.
Now, that is what we refer to as a lack of self-discipline.
What does it talk about?
Brian Tracy, through her book The Power Of Self Discipline, is urging us to let go of the lame EXCUSES AND FOCUS on achieving our dreams.
I understand there are times you need to do something but you don’t just feel like doing it. You feel the urge to set it aside and do it at a later date.
How does it help you?
You see, if we were all to operate like that, then the world economy would be on its knees.
Self-discipline is getting up to do what needs to be done even if you don’t feel the urge to.
Brian Tracy gives us a book full of exciting activities and exercises that push us to rise from our comfort zone and tackle life challenges.
This is the kind of self-healing book that will make you discover the forgotten personal goals and life fulfillment.
5. Radically Happy by Phakchok Rinpoche
Happiness doesn’t have any standard measure.
What tickles you to your cheekbones might be disgusting to the other person.
What does it talk about?
Let me give you an example.
There is one family that sleeps on an empty stomach on an almost daily basis. Now imagine if you were to assure them of daily meals, for the next year.
Wouldn’t they be elated?
Then there is a family that has everything at their disposal. They can eat as much as they want. They can easily drive to the pristine sandy beaches and sample the therapeutic summer sun.
Tell me, what else would such a family need to make them happy?
Nothing, absolutely!
The first family wants to feel excited and happy each day by just having a meal. The second family draws contentment with what they already have.
How does it help you?
Radically Happy is the kind of self-help book for anxiety that will help you become mindful of your general health through meditation.

This is a book that will help you develop a whole new life perspective and therefore create happiness in your life.
6. Deep Work by Cal Newport
Deep Down is an example of a self-development book any aspiring professional should have.
Cal Newport takes us through the effects of technology and social media on our daily work.
What does it talk about?
I have keenly read this book.
What comes out openly is how ready people are to outsource work due to the escalating levels of technology and social media.
You see, the world has turned into a global village thanks to the readily available technology. Now, more than ever, we can easily reach out and communicate with people in far-away lands.
Most businesses are hiring the best fit for their jobs from anywhere across the world.
What does that mean?
Deep Work emphasizes the need to be the best in your area of work. Build the required expertise and compete with the best in the field.
However, Cal Newport cautions against the distraction of social media in realizing our dreams.
How does it help you?
I am one person who spent so much time on social media, sometimes forgetting about my work and missing deadlines.
If I was not checking on my messages, then I was scrolling through the many notifications and updates to know what was going on around the world.
But, I realized that was the biggest impediment to any kind of progress I intended to make.
After reading Deep Work, I am now more focused on what I need to do and give less attention to the social media craze.
I can say my productivity levels have gone up and I am loving every bit of it.
Among the best personal development books I have read, I can confidently recommend this master-piece by Cal Newport.
7. Strengths Finder by Tom Rath
Many of us go about their daily activities oblivious of the potential they hold.
I mean, few of us know their strengths, and how well to utilize them.
Now, if you are struggling to discover your strengths, then this is the ideal self-help book to read.
What does it talk about?
Tom Rath gives us insights on how to find our strengths and use them to reach the apex of our careers and dreams.
I know we have all been told and urged to be good at everything and anything we do.
Well, that is quite an in order. We should all yearn to be the best we can.
Nonetheless, we can’t be good at everything we do. I mean, we must all find out that one thing we are good at and work towards perfecting it.
Strengths Finder by Tom Rath exposes the fallacy that is being good at everything.

8. 12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos by Jordan B. Peterson
Have you ever asked yourself what the world would look like if we were all to work on our weaknesses?
I mean, improving on your time management if you are poor at it. Respecting everyone’s opinion if you never do so. Honoring your promises whenever you make one. And the list goes on.
If we were all to correct our flaws and work on improving them, then the world would be a better place than it is today.
What does it talk about?
Jordan B. Peterson thinks that our society has a big problem that needs a collective responsibility.
But his suggestion on what needs to be done is the ultimate mark of brilliance and uniqueness of his book, 12 Rules for Life.
Jordan opines that for us to cure the world’s sadness and bring back the lost order, each one of us has to work on themselves, more than anything else.
And, I can’t agree more.
How does it help me?
The dominant theme in this robust book is change. Jordan believes nobody is too rigid to embrace some change.
He goes on to say that it doesn’t matter the magnitude of change. For him, he believes that even the slightest change can bring huge and tremendous results to mankind.
So if you are out there struggling to change something in you, do not sweat too much over it. It doesn’t need to go to the extreme ends.
Just a slight change in your behavior and the world would certainly become a better place.
The 12 Rules for life gives detailed and comprehensive guidelines on what you need to do to make a change in any sphere of life.
9. The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are by Brene Brown
This sounds like a too familiar topic. Yes, it is.
However, it is the most ignored and poorly handled topic among many people.
The world is full of people who don’t know how to politely say no.
The same world has a massive number of people who are living fake and pretentious lives.
Simply put, most of us are living the lives our friends and relatives want us to live.
And nothing can be as difficult as living under the pressure of pleasing someone.
What does it talk about?
Brene Brown uses her book to introduce us to her personal experiences.
I have seen Brown on many TED TALKS and honestly I was glad that I finally read one of her books. I was able to connect to her feelings, her fears, and her whole life.
But more importantly, from this best self-help book, I was able to learn how to handle different feelings and finding solutions for each.
How does it help you?
You see, nothing gives you so much confidence and belief in yourself than somebody who uses strong words to lift up your spirits. It works magic.
This is one of the many self-motivation books that combines real-life experiences and powerful life quotes to bring the best out of you.
Take for example the below sentence in one of the chapters in Brown’s book:
“Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn’t change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging.”
Now, that is the kind of statement that makes you feel not only confident but also special.
10. Eat that Frog! By Brian Tracy
What does it talk about?
I had a friend who lost her husband barely a month into her marriage.
Two weeks after burying her husband, she had a miscarriage and consequently lost her unborn baby.
As if that wasn’t enough, her matrimonial home went up in flames with her three-year-old son.
Now, tell me, what on earth is it that this lady hasn’t seen? She occasionally tells me that there is nothing in life that can scare her off.
And I agree with her.
She has literally eaten her frog and is ready to face the worst there could ever be.
If the first thing you do each morning is to eat a live frog, then you will have the satisfaction that you have dealt with the worst already.
And there couldn’t be anything worse than that left for that day.
How does it help you?
Brian Tracy uses this eating a frog as a metaphor.
It means taking on your challenges head-on, irrespective of how difficult it may be.
More than just eating your frog, this book tells us the importance of facing your worst fear and most dreaded challenge.
She further tells us that when we face our fears and endeavor to conquer our challenges, we create a positive impact in and around our lives.
So, who should read this book?
If you are the kind that struggles to complete the dreaded tasks, then this classic self-growth book is for you.

One thing that comes out clearly is the kind of thought organization displayed by Dr. Schwartz.
He has meticulously come up with a workable program that makes you get the most out of your job, your marriage, and your family life.
But the main highlight should be his view on who can attain success.
He affirms that you don’t need to have a university degree under your arm to attain great success and satisfaction.

This book gives you the secrets of harboring huge dreams and still remaining comfortable and confident while chasing on them.
12. You Are The One: A Bold Adventure in Finding Purpose, Discovering the Real You and Loving Fully by Kute Blackson
Most of us turn to religion when life becomes too complex to unravel.
It is an undeniable fact that there is solace in religion for most broken and despaired souls.
Kute Blackson might have realized this early and thus came up with this book, “You Are The One.”

Then we have Geneen Roth, the author of Women Food and God.
Here is his take on Gay:
“Gay Hendricks’ positivity, his love, his genius fill me with hope. And in The Big Leap, he once again names a pattern that I have always been aware of in myself but never quite brought to consciousness. Now that I have, there’s no going back. ”
Now, if you intend to get yourself a self-help book of all time, then Gay’s ‘The Big Leap’ is the ideal read.

14. The Dark Side of The Light Chasers by Debbie Ford
What is the fascinating thing you have to deal with when working towards achieving your goal?
For me, it has to be the feeling of not being good enough.
I am always confronted with the silent question, am I good enough? Am I worth it?
There is still that feeling of something to prove.
You will agree that if you were to realize your goals, then you need to let go of these feelings and adopt a winning mentality.
What does it talk about?
Reading through The Dark Side by Debbie Ford, I learn that we each hold within us a trace of every human characteristic that exists, the capacity for every human emotion.
Listen to this.
We are all born with abilities to wholly express our feelings and characteristics.
However, as Ford points out, our families and the society we live in send us insecure messages about which one of the emotions are bad and good.

Most of the self-healing books are intended to make you recover from a broken past and chart a new path altogether.
Simply put, these best self-care books make you reinvent your personality and live the life you have always desired.
Why reading/using self-help books
Reading generally is healthy for the mind and body. Your mind expands, and your thoughts broaden when you read.
However, reading self-help books comes with its unique benefits:
The experience puts the reader on a path to where they can read, practice the strategies learned, and make improvements in their lives without having to ask others for help.
Reading self-help books can also build a higher sense of confidence in a person – over time – that can help them to get out of almost any challenging situation without resorting to the help of others.
Another benefit of self-help books is that one develops the mentally tough attitude of relying on oneself and develops the skills of addressing and untying the knots of day-to-day life.
Why you should not read self-help books?
I have heard people saying this…
The problem with self-help books is that sometimes, people think that just reading will improve their lives, but they need to take action to get results and maybe to bring a change!
This is why self-help books can help improving someone’s life, but they need to take proper action!
How can I improve myself?
By reading self-help books, you will improve on the way you think, make decisions, and carry out your tasks.
If you can change all that, then for me, that is self-improvement.
