Interesting Personal Development Site

[Cron]

This is an interesting personal development site I found. It is a bit a different than others I have seen.

Its focus is on do it yourself REBT ( cognitive "therapy") as a means of personal development rather than therapy. Personal Development always seemed like a natural area to me for REBT.

REBT is based on the idea that what we think controls what we feel and how we behave. We can change undesirable behavior patterns and emotions by self analyzing our irrational thoughts with logic, substituting new rational thoughts based on reality, and then behaving in ways consistent with that those new rational thoughts.

The site focuses on a lot of common irrational beliefs, common problem behaviors, and common emotions that hold people back in personal development.

People who find that things like "the secret" , intention manifestation, etc not to be their cup of tea will like this site as it is very focused on objective reality, dealing with what is known, what can be proved, what is rational and using logic. However, it uses simple language and is easy to digest.

People who do like things like "the secrect" and IM will also get a lot out of the site, IMHO, as its focus is on what is going on inside of your head in terms of beliefs and thoughts.

Give it a try ( I am in no way affiliated with the site ).

Thanks for the pointer. I have been a fan of REBT for some time. Parts of it simply work.

Hi Gene,

It is rare to come across people who know about REBT, so I would it interesting to hear what parts of REBT that you believe do not work and why.

I'd be happy to discuss it with you. I will have to bookmark the conversation though and pick it up later. I am in the last stages of packing for my trip back to the U.S. from my other home in the Philippines.


I will look forward to talking to you.
