How to Love a Snob

Posted by juliemomyer in Heart & Soul on June 23, 2012

What do snobs and limp handshakes have in common? The short answer is that they are two of my biggest pet peeves. In some cases they go hand in hand…no pun intended. And yes, since these are two of my biggest, it means I have more. Hey, I’m working on it.

It’s been years since I’ve picked up a self-help book and I’m very judicious when I consider purchasing one. My chief complaint with turning to self-help books is that even if the content hits home, most of the instruction merely facilitates behavioral changes; Really, what more can they do? They point out your problem and offer steps to alter faulty behavior, but how long does behavioral modification last when it is warring against a resistant heart and a stubborn will?
