Self Developments Greatest Books For Free

Self development books have had an amazingly positive effect on me and my life. I’m pretty sure without them I wouldn’t be a Professional Life Coach, or at least not a very effective one!

Since I started blogging back in 2006 I have written lots of reviews and more than a few list posts such as The Greatest Self Development Books Ever Written and The Best Self Development Books Of 2011.

On a couple

A Caveman’s Guide to Happiness

First ever Life Coach

Before I hand over the keys of the blog to todays guest poster, Mark Swedberg, I wanted to tell you about a massive giveaway I’m planning for next week.

At the end of each year I write a post reviewing the best self development books to have been published in the previous 12 months.

If you want an idea of the kind of book that rocks my world and will be up for grabs,

Best Self Development Books Of 2011

Santa reading about life coaching

Yes indeed, although I’m pretty sure last December only happened a month or so ago, the end of 2011 is almost upon us.

As such here is my yearly round up of what I think are the best Life Coaching and  self development books to hit the streets so you can rush out and buy them all, or risk living a meaningless existence.

Life Coach Witch

I know I have talked about self development myths before, but I wanted to drag them kicking and screaming into the light of day again, because some of the pesky suckers refuse to go away.

I will delve into a couple of previous posts from a year or two ago, so forgive me if there is some overlap, but worry not there are plenty of lovely juicy new myths to get your teeth into.

Self Development For Kids

Life Coach teaching kids

The biggest dream I have is to be invited by the US Government to advise on teaching self development in schools.

Rather ironically, I had an actual dream recently in which that happened and I was given the keys to the school system and an unlimited budget.

I can’t actually remember much more of the dream, other than the President at the time was Charlie Sheen and Sarah Palin his Vice-President.

That seems highly

Who Can You Trust Online?

There’s a really good reason that I regularly tell people I’m a Life Coach who blogs, rather than a Blogger who offers Life Coaching.

It’s the same reason that stopped me making trips to blogging convensions like BlogWorld and SXSW, in spite of the fact there are lots of people I’ve met online that I would love to meet in person.

The main reason is I want to keep my distance from a growing

How Serious Are You About Your Self Development?

Man reading book on Life Coaching

Every Life Coach or self development blogger that releases a new product announces to the world how pumped they are.

And in some ways rightly so, because if they’re not pumped about their own product, then how the hell can they expect anybody else to be?

I’ve been working on my latest ebook for 2 years off and on in terms of refining and testing the process. It’s without doubt the most important material

Let’s Stop The Self Development Bullshit, Shall We?

I was on Twitter the other day when somebody tweeted the following:

“Life is not designed to be hard. If it seems difficult, you’re doing it wrong”

I get what the guy means and in no way do I want to knock him for a comment that was obviously well intentioned.

Of course your reality is indeed inside your own head, and your thoughts are what create and then dictate how
