It's Not Self-Help, It's HELP!

By Fred Venturini

Self-help books, by and large, kind of suck? They're padded with useless anecdotes and a lot of filler, and they have more platitudes than strategies. However, I love non-fiction and have done the heavy lifting, reading all the crap so you don't have to, to come up with the absolute must-reads in this popular category.

Credit to George Carlin and his bit on these books: "If you need self-help, why would read a book written by somebody else? That’s not self-help, that’s help! There is no such thing as self-help. If you did it yourself, you didn’t need help!”

Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World

David Epstein

$28.00 $26.04

What if I told you being sort of good at a lot of things instead of just one is a huge advantage? What if I proved that specialization prevents you from seeing ideas and solutions, and that we are hiring all the wrong people in all the wrong ways? Perhaps not specifically self-help, but this book will help you take it easier on yourself for not having the LASER LIKE FOCUS that the world seems to demand that you have.
