Sporadically, I've encountered some negativity in the comments of the personal development blog-o-sphere. It's as if self-help allegedly has a dark side to it - egotism, fluff, exploitation, superiority, deception and even lunacy. an additional one prevalent issue is when a absolutely useful piece of work has a dinky orthographical or political incorrectness. The consulation gets dominated by minds wanting to prove and show their critical and assuming view towards the author's supposedly intellectual impediment. In my view, this goes to show that there are fullness of healing to be done when it comes to mind-sets, and some explication to be presented when it comes to the somewhat elusive term personal growth/development.
A negative comment, no matter what the target, goes to show the commentator's level of negativity. A view or commentary about a presentation over a matter can still constructively consist of points of improvement, but having a negative force behind its motive, at once diminishes the impact and often leaves the commentary unnoticed or disregarded as a whole. In fact, a commentator oneself of this calibre keeps perpetuating the level of consciousness that spawned the unproductive view in the first place. The great thing about blogs is that an unproductive view of a blog entry or the blog itself, backfires on the commentator as it ironically or not, increases the traffic to the site.

There's nothing wrong with these habitancy as they are the result of their environment and upbringing. My major concern is that they will never touch what it's like to live without shame, guilt, apathy, grief, fear, desire, anger or false pride (desire as in addiction or compulsive and impulsive desire), because they feel trapped, while powerless or unwilling to make a change to the better. It is their own limiting mind-sets they sow, that reap the negatively geared comments toward self-help. Naturally, this goes for any and every other source that has the power to affect the mind-set. Just think of any item conveyed through advertising.
I wrote in my old narrative that no man can serve others best than they have the potential to serve themselves. There's a virtue in selfishness, but with a positive prerequisite - that the aim is to enhance the public well-being to the similar degree as you're able to help yourself. And let's face it, just about all facts that leads to the correction of a human's internal condition is the result of wisdom received from others. This is why reciprocity is of importance. Some habitancy find difficulty in accepting the process of selling already existing, productive facts and wisdom through "a new package". If this were forbidden, then two consequences would follow.
Firstly, the customary piece of wisdom would only be refined as far as the customary innovator has the potential to, which means that additional correction would stagnate. Secondly, it would mean that sharing the facts additional would be considered wrong, because the personal revelations are morally supposed to stay within the individual or to that specific individual's capacity to share it with others. Now we're beginning to see how ludicrous it is not to share knowledge and wisdom to others, no matter how intimately it may seem connected to what others have said before. Revolting against the phenomenon has weaker result than ignoring it.
To me, personal development also includes impersonal development. I like to internally call it public development until a similar expression reaches mainstream recognition. Recognition, as in familiarity and understanding of its tenor. There's always man who has not stumbled upon a positive pearl of wisdom that 100 visitors previously think of as self-evident. And additional immersion into the field of personal, impersonal or public development, anyone you want to call it, slowly turns that proportion into 100 visitors discovering something critical that only one man is already living by.
