Self Help

Nov 02, 2005 12:50

I am so confused right now. I was in a really great mood for a few days and decided to start a plan of action to better my life.I did some research on a couple of self help books, found a few I really liked, an ordered them from Amazon.SO, my mom was reading "A Purpose Driven Life" and I have heard a ton about this book as well. SO, last night I started reading A Purpose Driven Life, and it was not what I was expecting AT ALL. They basically say that in order to find peace in your life, you must only look to God, not within yourself. Let it be known that I pretty much consider myself a Christian, because I do believe in Christ, I just do not really buy into the whole bible thing. Maybe I will one day, but for now I just don't. That being said, I find this book very confusing and not very helpful. Do any of you know what all the hype is about?
I feel that, to improve our life, you must first improve yourself.I just hope God doesn't get too mad at me for trying to do that first.
Also,has anyone had any luck/awakening with a self-help book? Jenna Jameson's "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star" not included, although definately a tasty read. ( :
