    What a good idea to create a list of the best self-help books. It's made better for it being something you are obviously passionate about. And better too for your obvious desire to ensure that others don't get waylaid by third-rate self-help books. If you don't mind me saying so, well done. And thank you.

    This is a pretty awesome list you've compiled and reviewed. BTW, I adore your picture of a cat sitting up with a little laptop computer in it's lap! ~~Blessed~~

    Amen to Norman Vincent Peale and Steven Covey. However I missed seeing Zig Ziglar (the man that really defined goals to me), Earl Nightingale, and Brian Tracy. Great lens

    I have read hundreds of self help books, checked out a few new ones from here. All my lenses are self help / Personal growth related. It's my passion and my hobby!

    I really like reading self-help books and I am going to read a couple that are on your lens. Very informative and uplifting lens. You are right about self-help being the only help as you said one has to choose to do so.
  • Edutopia Feb 13, 2012 @ 2:25 am | delete
    Nice list, not everyone can figure out how to pull through on things on their own and books in this genre are a great boon for them.
  • MarilynImanse Feb 11, 2012 @ 7:07 pm | delete
    Lots of good resources on self help here. My favorite book on self help/personal success is Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Don't be mislead by the title - riches are in every area of our lives.

    not bad choices

  • COUNTRYLUTHIER Oct 1, 2011 @ 9:46 pm | delete
    I think number (your) 5 is my number one choice, The Power of Positive Thinking. I too read this soooooo many years ago that I cannot remember how long ago that it was. Nice selection!
  • betsuzie Sep 30, 2011 @ 9:12 am | delete
    I read "The Power Of Positive Thinking" at a very young age and it changed my life!!

    I was surprised that 7 Habits was your #1 but that has made me want to go back and reread it. Thanks.

    Hello, very informative lens. Keep up the good work. My personal faourite is As a Man Thinketh
  • lasertek May 24, 2011 @ 8:20 pm | delete
    I have read only 2 books from your list - The Road Less Traveled & The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I enjoyed both of these books that is why I cannot choose which is my #1.
  • PeterDuerksen May 20, 2011 @ 2:13 pm | delete
    Great list!
  • Tipi Apr 30, 2011 @ 11:11 am | delete
    "There is only one self help secret, it is all up to you.", now that is the best self help advice ever. Your very sincere story is the best testimonial I have ever heard for a book and you cover 10 to help others cut through the one's that really are only for putting money in the author's and publisher's pockets.
  • sabinamiller Apr 18, 2011 @ 1:15 pm | delete
    Very informative lens and excellent work... Thanks..

    For me, it's an old, easy, simple book called HELP YOURSELF by John Lembo, Ed.D. (Copyright 1974).
  • greenlife17 Feb 23, 2011 @ 7:34 pm | delete
    mine is The Greatest Salesman In the World by Og Mandino. Please allow me to include this in my lensroll, God bless
  • May 5, 2011 @ 11:38 pm | delete
    Greenlife17 I agree! Today I just put The Greatest Salesman in the World on my very first lense about the books I read and why I read them. I would love to know if you got what I got from it.

    Great list of self help books. It would be tough to put those in order but you did a great job.
  • jennynazak Jan 31, 2011 @ 11:00 pm | delete
    Great list! Great lens. I like the Seven Habits book too. I think my all-time favorite self-help book is actually a pair of books. "LIving Deliberately" and "ReSurfacing," by Harry Palmer. Simple exercises that allow anyone to learn how to deliberately navigate, manage, and (if desired) restructure his/her own consciousness.
  • GoodinDevelopments Jan 22, 2011 @ 6:20 am | delete
    How To Win Friends and Influence People. So good. 7 Habits is great also. A good choice for #1.

    Napoleon Hill is one of my favorites.

    Great lens! I just put together a self help lens too! Great choice in books. I've read most of those and didn't even think to add them on my lens.
  • DallasNicole Jan 14, 2011 @ 7:47 am | delete
    Very neat and well put together lens you have here. Powerful books listed! Great lens

    Bob Proctor and Napoleon Hill are my two favourites.

    Nice lens. Adding it to a lens I created on a self help book.
  • FunMoneyBusiness Nov 7, 2010 @ 3:07 pm | delete
    "You Were Born Rich" by Bob Proctor is a book that is part of his famous life changing course by the same name. Application of the lessons changed my thinking and my results, I will be forever grateful! (Great lens, smart 10 down to 1, and LOVE the content!)
  • Mrmakingusmile Sep 29, 2010 @ 1:11 pm | delete
    John C. Maxwell the 360 Degree leader is one of my favorites. I use the book to help my employees as well.
  • Lorie Sep 24, 2010 @ 11:17 pm | delete
    My all-time favorites are Dr. Wayne Dyers' mental health books. They got me through some pretty rough times, and I recommend any and all of them!
    Awesome lens- I've fav'ed and thumbed you!
    Thanks :)

    Laws of Success - Napoleon Hill

    The best self-help book I ever found that was useful to me was "The Dance of Anger" by Harriet Lerner.
