" 1. A self-help book targeting your EXACT life problem catches your eye It&amp;#039;s like the book is speaking to you...  2. You&amp;#039;re not sure about all that hippie crap so you Amazon-stalk it.  &amp;quot;WOAH. There&amp;#039;s so many 5* reviews. Is this book going to change my life? I really think it might...&amp;quot; 3. You spot a few negative reviews among the amazing ones, though... But you just dismiss those because those people were clearly not committed to it . But you will be.  4. You start reading it. It&amp;#039;s... weird.  God, self-help writers are a bit cringe aren&amp;#039;t they? &amp;quot;YOU hold the KEY to your most abundant life EVER,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Engorge your life with GRATITUDE and you&amp;#039;ll THROB with SUCCESS&amp;quot;... Still, you keep it up in case it might change your life.  5. You keep reading. It actually makes total sense! &amp;quot;Of course my persistent negative thoughts are the reason I&amp;#039;ve never felt truly valued... Everyone else is not the dickhead - my MIND is the dickhead!&amp;quot;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt; 6. You Instagram photos of the most &amp;#039;inspirational&amp;#039; quotes.  It&amp;#039;s so hard to choose. Your friends are getting slightly annoyed with your excessive #gratitude. They&amp;#039;re just jealous they&amp;#039;re not as #blessed.  7. You start putting the tips into practice And you&amp;#039;re starting to see some positive changes. People make fun of this stuff but it ACTUALLY WORKS. You feel like you&amp;#039;re seeing the world through new eyes.  8. You secretly miss being a bit bitchy But you stay strong, because you now know the laws of attraction, and you&amp;#039;re only harming your own happiness with your neggy vibes.&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt; 9.
