I thought the same. I've lessened that stance a bit. I'm the kind of person that finds concil and guidance within myself. But I do take inspiration from music, stories, nature. In a way that's not too different from reading a self help book. So while I think it's silly to rely on such things, if it helps you make a positive change it's fine.
I make my own self help videos lmao 😆
I record myself giving a pep talk and amp myself up, then listen to them when I get down or am fealing weak.
Hmm actually not a bad idea 🙂

I sort of have the same mentality. I try to use nature as my grounding source. But latelynive been feeling so out of control in my thoughts and I'm so quick to anger...where I dont ever recall being like this. So possibility I need structure of some sort for a little bit until I'm back in control of my emotions.

They're good! What do you think you need to work on?
Latly I'm quick to rise with anger, and I cang seem to hold back my thoughts. Also I need to word on being less reactionary

Sounds like you're having irritability problems, over stressed about something?

Her no is a ringing endorsement if you think about it 😂
My sister reads the finance ones and gives me the cliff notes. I’ve ‘read’ all of Suzy orman and Dave Ramsey

What's everyone opinion on them? Has anyone read them? Did you find them helpful/useful? I have an odd stigma against them. Always thought they were for the weak minded or sheep...but lately I've been looking into them
Any suggestions would be appreciated
