Self Improvement
Clo ! asked:


Today I went to the library and checked the “self improvement” section. I am a firm believer, that there is always something that someone can improve him/herself. The titles of those books shocked me!!

“How to talk to a moody partner”
“How to stay sober and succeed”
“How to date and actually marry the person”
“How to wake up and smell the flowers”
So many “how to”…meanwhile, the “Home &Garden” section, was a keeper ! Everyone was buying “how to plant tomatoes and how to cook them” !

  3. For book titles are prescriptive mean consider that most titles are trying to trouble themselves to go into library and lookout for and practical so people who wants almost instant satisfaction see that they have taken big leap from tv as solving problem source to trouble themselves to leave the same something.

    “How to grow poisonous plants to give to your spouse & get away with it”

    “How to Drink Water”

    “Are you Allergic to Air?”

    “How to give your $$$$ to the Author & Make Him Rich in 3 Easy Steps”
