I have always loved books. I buy them and love to display in my living room.
If space permits, then transforming a shelf into a large library is one of my dreams.
While, life has become a little busy nowadays, I never want to give up on reading. Even today when an opportunity strikes, I prefer to sit with a book than switch on the television or mindlessly surf the internet.
A few days back I was rummaging through my books to find something on self-help or psychology or anything that is motional to read.
And I found that I do have quite a few in my collection. But, then I surveyed online to see what are the new ones in the market. And I feel sheepish to admit, I am quite lagging behind.
After building my list to buy, it got me thinking that I should write on some of the top motivational books of all time and help those who are seeking some suggestions on which book to read and why.
So, below is the list of 10 Best Books for Self-Help and Motivation.
I am not mentioning books in any particular order of preference or popularity.
