Self Help Websites
How many self-help sites does it take to change a lightbulb?
;-)
Yes, it's true! There are lots of self improvement websites out there
- the Self Help Collective
is not the only site claiming to be your self help portal.
:-(
Actually, it's okay! Some of these websites (like StevePavlina.com) are
also worthwhile places to visit if you're serious about self-improvement.
(You are, aren't you?) And this page is simply a list of what I consider
to be the best self help forums, resources, portals and websites around.
And, of course, if you know of another self-help website then do let
me know. I may well include it on this page. Thanks.
Self help websites, forums, resources etc. - what I say...
Where, exactly, is your self help portal, your web self help? Well, the
self-help website you've been looking for could be listed below, you never
know!
|
Steve Pavlina
|
"Personal development for smart people™"
Steve Pavlina has developed a comprehensive (and popular) self-help
website. It includes self help forums, articles and even audio self
help resources. Interestingly, Steve is a recent convert to my last
'self-help website' - Site Build It!
Verdict: Worth a visit (but do come back soon, eh! Lol)

|
Self
Improvement Guide
|
"Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Self Improvement
But Never Dared To Ask"
Contains all the usual self help resources like articles on anger
management, positivity
and self esteem etc, as well as
inspirational quotations
Verdict: Simple, if somewhat anonymous self-help site
|
|
Solve
Your Problem
|
"Dream it. Then Achieve it." Since 1998
Very busy self-help website contains articles on just about every
self-help topic you can imagine (and some you can't). I recommend
that you know what self help improvement issue you're particularly
concerned about otherwise you could spend all day on this website.
Lol.
Verdict: Contains perhaps too much self help information!
|
|
SelfGrowth.com
|
"The internet supersite for Self Improvement and Personal
Growth."
This very popular self-help website is by Michelle and David Riklan.
It contains articles, inspirational quotes, a discussion board and
newsletters with over 100,000 subscribers. My only criticism is
that there may be too much unedited self help info. (Just how many
self-help
articles do people really need to read?)
Verdict: Worth visiting, but prepare for information overload
|
|
Bullseye
Living
|
"Charles Burke's self-motivation blog"
Charles writes a blog about many aspects of self-help that fascinate
me, namely the things that stop us from achieving what we want out
of life (e.g. fear). Charles' solutions - and he provides ebooks,
courses and tele-seminars, as well as oodles of free information
on the blog - usually involve changing how you think about things.
Bullseye Living has a business-focus but I think all can benefit
from Charles' wisdom, I really do. :-)
Verdict: I respect Charles' views a lot - visit!

Urban Monk
|
"Personal Development for Bliss. Success. Love"
This is a self-help blog from the Urban Monk (aka, er, Urban Monk).
I include this self help resource as I like his attitude to self-help
summed up by this, "...take it from me - approach all such
[self-help] material[s] with a critical mind. Don't just follow
them blindly, no matter how good they sound. Try them out for a
little; decide for yourself if they are good or bad. And yes, that
applies to this blog you are on right now"
Verdict: Give the Urban Monk a chance! :-)

And finally... Last but not least of the self help websites.
|
|
Site Build
It!
Note: above for sitesell.com domain not just Site Build It!
|
Helping yourself is the best form of self-help. And Site
Build It! (SBI!) is the only all-in-one website building tool that
truly has the power to transform lives, to enable people to live
their dreams, to literally help themselves to a more fulfilling
life. So you will not find self help information at this website,
but you will find a fantastic opportunity to help yourself.
Verdict: Highly recommended (just ask Steve Pavlina)! :-)
Notes:
1) SelfHelpCollective.com was created
using Site Build It! (Read my online
journal to see how the site came into being.)
2) The link above is my free guide to this all-in-one service
|
Note: Alexa traffic ranking is an estimate of site popularity - the lower
the number, the more popular the site; e.g. StevePavlina.com is 14,000th
(or whatever the number is now) most popular site on the web! (Ish.) I
guess this a good thing to know about self help websites - popularity
must mean something, no?
More self help websites...
And the following websites have nothing to do with self-help, in that
they are not self help websites. Or aren't they? (Sound of dramatic music.
Lol.) I think they at least provide entertainment and fun and, after all,
ain't what this life is all about?
Agree? Disagree? Let me know what you think
of all these self-help resources - thanks.

Play
Space Invaders
Play Space Invaders just like you did when you were younger. Well,
if you happen to be a forty-something male, anyway. Lol.
- Free Rice
Test your word power and do some good - a few grains of rice at a time.
Basically, for each word you get right, they donate 20 grains of rice
through the UN World Food Program (to help end hunger). Go on, thinking
of others is good for you, you know it is... ;-)
Ps My best level is 38 - bet you can't beat it! ;-)
- Good New Daily
The power of good news! :-)
- The Daily Nice
- A 'nice' photograph every day, from Jason Evans. That's all.
-
Horses Mouth
Find more people who could help you (or who you could help) here...
- Book Crossing
Share your finished self-help book (or novel, or whatever it is that
you read) with someone else, wherever they live in the world. And, here's
the fun part, track who has read it and what they thought of it. Book
Crossing is a fun way to connect to people
- Increase
Brain Power
What better way to help yourself than to increase your brain power.
And The Weekly Brainpower newsletter aims to do just that.
- YouTube.com
YouTube is not just about pop promos, clever adverts or filming pratfalls.
Real people are sharing their lives with each other - highs and lows
- and reaching out. Check out Ysabella Brave's channel for starters
Self help websites - what YOU say...
I'm not sure what you know about self help forums and selfhelp sites,
or what you think of the resources I've included above so - can you guess
what I'm going to ask now? - would you mind letting me know! :-)
Yes, contact us here - and get in touch.
(Especially if you know of a great free self help portal that I haven't
included.) Thanks.
