TJ Walker (speaker) argues that the self-help and personnel-development movements over-focus on people with severe problems, while many people are functioning adequately and simply want to improve. He encourages viewers to pursue enhancement of their lives without assuming they are fundamentally flawed, using a "0 to 10" positive baseline metaphor and recommending the "TJ Walker habit."

Chapters

Sure, nobody's perfect. Everybody has some problems. But no, not everybody in the world is completely screwed up and comes from a dysfunctional family. Too much of the self help movement, the personnel development movement, is all about dealing with people who have highly specific big problems and they need help. But there's a huge, huge swath of humanity are in this range from 0 to 10 being positive. The 0 to minus 10 is what gets all the traditional attention from the psychology and psychiatry world. But you may be living a perfectly fine life, but you want a better life. You want a greater life. That's fine. Realize you can have a greater life without coming to some conclusion that you're totally screwed up and messed up. Or work on enhancing your life. Having a better life Regardless of your baseline, please follow the TJ Walker habit.
