I think your site is great. Your writing is clear and simple. Reading your site inspires me to improve my life and makes me think that it really is possible! So thanks for that! Having said that, I thought that this particular entry could have been clearer on what your main point is. When I finished reading it, I did think to myself: wait... what was his point? I THINK your point was: "Try personal development products which have good evidence backing them." Am I right in thinking this? Anyway, I wondered if you'd heard of or read a book called "The Happiness Trap" by Russ Harris. I am reading it at the moment and I think it's great. It has good scientific evidence behind it. I thought I'd recommend it to you. Thanks again for your site! Hi Brad!

I agree with you that the "Law of Attraction" is just a scam. Good your back, have not checked this site in a while. I agree with you that the “Law of Attraction” is just a scam.

He writes about rationality and self-deception, usually in the larger context of society, but it definitely has bearing on the individual as well.
