Self-help books are some of the most popular and most borrowed books of all genres. People love to read about how they can improve their health, their attitudes and their lives in general. So many people read self-improvement books, but how many actually attempt to put some of what they've read into practice?

The Self-Help Book Club aims to do just that - help you help yourself by discussing ways in which theory can be put into practice.

Self-help Book Club is led by Andrea and Ines, and the sessions take place once per month, on designated Saturdays. 

We will continue discussing “How to Decide: Simple Tools for Making Better Choices” by Annie Duke, focusing on chapters 5-9.

If you only have time to read one chapter, we suggest chapter 7 - Breaking Free from Analysis Paralysis.
