So I’m not living the best time of my life (but I’m not living the worst either Thanks God), and I’ve been looking for a Self help to help (lol) me deal with it.
The problem is- I don’t know what I’m exactly looking for.
I’m not depressed (I’m happy), I have no relationship problems (everything is fine there), I have no family problems (we’re fine). But yet something is lacking, and I don’t know what is it.
I feel like an important part is missing but I don’t know what or where or how to fill that void.
I don’t want to sound dramatic or ungrateful but I do feel like I need to read something to help me with that, but I don’t know what “that” is.
Does it make sense?
Also, I don’t usually read selfhelp so I don’t know any “categories” and that why I’m asking for your help.
(I’m about to finish “Be Useful” by Schwarzenegger and I’m enjoying it, but I’m really biased towards Arnold so… )
The only clue that I have is that I want to do lots of things and start lots of projects, but I end up doing nothing. So maybe that’s where I need help…
Anyways I’m open to ANY suggestions of reading.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the grammar, English ain’t my first language.
