Self Help - The Total Resource
What’s the best Self Help Product for You?
As the writer and editor for a web-based self-help superstore, you’d think I’d be able to answer a question such as, “What’s the best self help product for me?” in a flash. Sorry, but I just can’t. Because the question directly begs a question of its own.
Self Help books and products are what we live and breathe at The Happiness Superstore…
When you say, ‘What’s the best self-help product for me?’ what precisely do you mean when you say ‘me’?
Now I don’t want to get tangled up in an existential debate, here. The nature of reality and identity will have to wait for another day. However, just reflect over the last few days. Think about a situation when you were relaxed (taking a deep bath, maybe). Mull over a situation when you were hassled (your PC kept crashing). Think about a situation when you were seething (your computer still kept crashing and the IT support people suggested you try switching it off and back on again). Think about a situation when you were in high spirits (drinking good coffee with good friends). Mull over all those times: was it in reality the same ‘me’ who occupied each of those little moments in time? Is the irritated ‘me’ the same as the happy ‘me’? For most of us, the answer is no. We are not the same character from one day to the next, and on our more hapless days, we’re not even the same person from one moment to the next.
Walt Whitman put it most succinctly, I think, when he wrote ‘I contain multitudes’.
We all do. We all ‘contain multitudes’.
So, why then do you think (or even hope) there is a self-help product out there that is absolutely suited to you, a best self help product?
Precisely which ‘you’ is it we’re talking about?
Mercifully, there is a whole range of self-help books and inspirational products available, multitudes in fact. And not only could you find the best self-help product for you, you could find the best self-help product for all the’ yous’ you contain.
At The Happiness Superstore we’ll help you decide exactly what Best Self-Help Product for you is…
Best of luck. To all of you.
