I think it's interesting how, if someone doesn't agree with something someone says in a self-help book because it doesn't fit THEIR lifestyle or how they're used to acting, how they magically think it may be wrong.
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but if their ways were right and working for them, would they be seeking out a self-help book to begin with?
So, any time you read something by me or someone else, if something touches a nerve, and what you had been doing prior to reading that wasn't working for you, maybe that's life's way of telling you something. Maybe the things that are irking you when someone tries to help you are because you don't want to change and fix what's preventing you from getting what you want.
I mean, we all SAY we want to fix what's wrong with us, but our minds have a self protection mechanism/alarm that often goes off when we hear something that seems foreign to us or takes us out of our comfort zones.
It's sad, but it happens a lot. People would much rather snap at ideas that are different because it's easier for them than thinking that maybe those ideas could actually help them get what they want if they still don't have whatever that may be.
