Books to Read Now if You Want to Improve Your Life. Starting TODAY!

By Shai_Quan

The cliché of “finding yourself” always made no sense to me until I actually did. On my journey of self-discovery and finding out who I am and what makes me unique just scratches the surface honestly. Discovering what makes me truly happy, the kind of people I want to surround myself with, and what motivates me to work hard has shaped who I am and what I will become. And a huge part of my journey has been reading self-improvement books. I mean, we must learn how to be our highest selves from someone else, right? It can be difficult to find the best self-improvement books that speak to you as every path to self-discovery is individual and different from the next.  I did some digging on what you can dive into to set the right intentions for the new year…. Here’s to 2023—2022 has nothing on US.

Untamed – by Glennon Doyle

For all you people-pleasers out there (me included), this is a must-read. Part memoir, part self-help book, Untamed is about discovering your voice, your true self. Doyle takes us through her personal journey of letting go of others’ expectations and, instead, trusting and strengthening her inner voice. The main takeaway? “Your job, throughout your entire life, is to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself.” I’ll leave you with that.

The High 5 Habit: Take Control of Your Life with One Simple Habit – by Mel Robbins

According to Robbins, all it takes is a simple habit—giving your reflection a high five in the mirror—and an easy morning routine to shift your mood and perspective, which she calls the “High 5 Habit.” You might be thinking that sounds silly (I definitely did), but after trying it for a week, I realized it all comes down to the relationship I have with myself and being my own biggest cheerleader. PSA: We shouldn’t wait to receive a promotion, fit in our favourite pair of jeans from high school, or finally get reciprocation from a long-time crush to feel more confident. We deserve to be happy now. The High 5 Habit tools are free and easy, which means anyone, anywhere, at any age can benefit from them.
