Book description
A Self-Help Spoof for the Life Impaired
Right here in this book store, you can find hundreds of them --
self-help books. They tell you how to improve your finances,
lose weight, age gracefully, and influence people. But even after
reading all those books, you're still a mess. It can only mean one
thing: maybe life's just not that into you.
Once you open you mind to this possibility, you can quit beating
yourself up. It's all about attitude. It's about the find art of
whining. It's about losing your shirt, but keeping your dignity. It's
about being dull and boring, but making it work for you. It's about
losing friends and influencing nobody. It's about just saying no to
dieting because, well, let's be honest, carbs just taste good.
A hilarious, good-natured spoof on more that fifty self-help books,
this book will leave you feeling better about who you are and laughing
your way to becoming the person God created you to be.
