Views: 1030 - “I Had Severe Learning Difficulties!” - by Submitted on Nov 17, 2017 from Oliver JR CooperBefore I had read my first book on self-development, towards the end of 2003, I didn’t really read books. The books that I had read were the ones that I had to read whilst I was at school, and this meant that I didn’t have a choice. Up until this point, I didn’t enjoy reading; which was ...
Views: 1061 - “I Thought I Just Lacked Confidence!” - by Submitted on Jan 09, 2018 from Oliver JR CooperWhen I was younger, I often found it hard to behave how I wanted to behave, and I was often described as being ‘shy’.

Views: 1364 - “I Was Told That I Was Useless!” - by Submitted on Nov 19, 2017 from Oliver JR CooperI remember listening to Dov Baron in 2006 and thinking about I would love to know as much as he did. At this point, I had already been learning about self-development for about three years, so it wasn’t as though I hadn’t come across anyone like this before. However, although I had listened ...

Views: 1089 - “It’s Called The Fight Instinct!” - by Submitted on Apr 04, 2018 from Oliver JR CooperA few years ago, I could see that I found it hard to stand my ground and to assert myself.
