I agree with the previous post about the order in which to read the books you have.

I suggest you read 1 book and apply the tips and exercises for 1 month. As you read about a habit to change or an exercise to do, do it right away (don't wait to have read all the book).

Once you have done the exercises and applied the principles for 1 month, then move on to the next book.

I have done this with the 1st self-help book I have read 1 year ago (The Success Principles from Jack Canfield) and it really made a great positive impact on my life.

If you have trouble getting motivated to read, get your hands on CD's or MP3's. Most self-help books now have an audio version.

Good luck!
