no,no, no, no, no!! Bad Blogger, pretending to have any knowledge of human behaviour. I'm getting sick and tired of these pseudo-scientific 'coaches' selling unfounded new age crap to the 'searching souls'. If you feel you need to gain insight or personal development, get a professional. By professional I mean a trained specialist in human behaviour (e.g., psychologist) with at least a masters degree in a related field. Life's to short to waste your time chasing mindless one-liners like: "Intelligence: Live authentically, and express your genuine creativity". I mean, seriously, think about it. What is intelligence and how can it be achieved. Same goes for authenticity and creativity. These are empty words. Granted, words one can contemplate on for a long time, but it will not get you anywhere. And then there's the utter bullshit this nut job is spreading. While blogging about personal development, he gives you 10 reason you should never get a job. Oh dear god, how I want to smack him over the head with his own book. Want personal development? Start by getting a job, preferable a job a bit above your competence and skill level in a challenging environment. See how that works out. In the mean time, don't read this shite. Just don't.

Negatory. This site is full of new age hippie bullsh*t. As 0sm0sis said, this stuff is certainly not written for smart people; it's written for people who would like to think of themselves as smart -- I.e., New Agers.

Without doubt one of the best personal development blogs out there. Sound, practical advice that you can easily implement into your own life. Steve's advice has had a great influence me and has articles have motivated me in many ways. I avoid putting him on a pedestal but his work speaks for itself and he does come across as genuine. Definitely worth a look. I guarantee you spend hours there.

If you have any interest in personal development at all, you should frequent this website often. Steve Pavlina provides such great content and will inspire you to make real and lasting positive change in yourself and your life. Steve is unafraid to share his experiences, opinions and personal insights under the public spotlight and he does so with honesty and integrity. That I believe is why he has had such a profound impact on so many people's lives, including mine.

Extremely valuable site! It contains many ideas on becoming "better you". I found it just about 2 month ago, but now I visit it almost every day. Attracted by the topic of polyphasic sleep, I started looking through the other topics and something's changed inside of me. I now go to the gym 3 days a week, have special diet, don't drink any sort of alcogol. Interesting thing is that my changes are not just "following the instruction", but a feeling that I need to do these things. In other words that's an engine that pushes me forward ;)
