Self Help Question And Answer
What word other than "self help" could be used to describe living a competitive proactive lifestyle?
I'm looking for information on how to be a better person. How I can work towards it. How I can rationalize my thoughts, and set a goal towards.
Hell, even a life basics book would help me out. Anything other than self help which makes a point of wording their books like you are in need of "help" and are thus pitiful.

Try searching for information on entrepreneurship or self-sufficiency - in some ways opposite sides of the same kind.
I hope this is helpful. Best of luck.
Read "Discover Your Destiny with the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" by Robin Sharma. He's a great author who blends true life with fictional characters.
Robin Sharma is "one of the world’s top experts on leadership, elite performance and personal growth. ... His ideas on self-mastery and organizational excellence have helped millions of people in over 35 countries and companies like FedEx, Nike, IBM, General Motors and Panasonic get to greatness."
I think that you will find that he does not make you feel "pitiful", rather he helps people become better personally and professionally. Try it, you might like it :) I am currently reading this book ("Discover Your Destiny...") and I have found it to be one of the best "self-help" books I have read because it really makes you think philosophically rather than making you feel like a "pitiful" mess. LOL
um, if you buy a self help book, that's not self help:that's just help. Admitting you need help is not pitiful. You posted a question looking for help and I don't think you're pitiful.
