Not All Self Help Authors Are Created Equal

You read my blog and once in a while I will quote from a "self help" book. Some people belittle some of these authors and just recently I found a reason to belittle one of them.



The Secret is a well known book because it was endorsed by the contemporary king maker, Oprah. To be fair, Mr. Ray was not the primary author of the book but a contributor at large.

So it was to my true surprise that he was involved in the tragedy you will see you in the video.


The video I attached really only gives the former staff worker's side of the story but nowhere does Ray bother to give his side. You may see the links below, that none of them seem to portray James Ray as someone who cares about people under his care or clearing his own name.
