Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This is a no-nonsense, practical self-help handbook written in a friendly, entertaining, and concise style. The chapters are short and devoid of bull, frills, and hype. All you'll find are ideas that work written in such a way that it is enjoyable and interesting to read and leaves you with solid tools you can use to better your life. You will learn how to become more effective with your actions and feel good more often.

From the Author
I have made the best book I could. It is a hardbound litho-label, which means it has no dust cover. The cover design is laminated right onto the cover. And it is a sewn binding, which is kind of rare these days, even for a hard-bound book. Sewn bindings lay open easier and don't crack or fall apart, even after years of hard use.

And this book is designed to be USED. It is made to be referred to when you need some counsel. The chapters are short and always end with a simply-stated principle you can apply.

Since the things we learn are not etched in stone but stored in a gooey organ, it's important to not only learn good ideas, but to be reminded of them when we need them. Probably the best way to use Self-Help Stuff That Works is to browse the book when you're feeling a negative emotion like stress or frustration or annoyance. Leaf through the book looking for a chapter that answers your situation. Most of the chapters are short enough to read in five minutes or less. You'll come away from it with a tool you can use to improve either your situation or your attitude toward it.
