When I turned 20 and got admission in the university. I had a lot of bad habits like procrastination, laziness, etc. I used to think about how am I going to live my life. I used to think why am I here? what is the purpose of my life? These are the questions that arise in every teenager’s mind. Somehow, I founded the way of the library. I have read more than 60 books about self-help. I am going to shortlist only Five of them for you. These books can change you too as they have changed me.

Here are the five amazing books that you must read.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens.

This 90’s self-helping book has helped me a lot to change my habits. Although he wrote it the ’90s, it addresses the issues of the present generation. You must read it during your college days although I got late. This book will help you in handling your stress. Sean convey argues teenagers have different bank accounts in your life like a personal bank account(PBA) and relationship bank account(RBA). He later tells to teenager how to run these accounts in your life and how much they are important. Every time one keeps a promise to himself/herself or does exercise, he/she makes a deposit in PBA. And then he explains how one withdraws from PBA when he/she does not study or read. Sean also tells by keeping promises or apologizing one can make a deposit in his/her RBA.
7 habits told in books are,

(i) Be proactive
(ii) Begin with the end in mind
(iii)Put first things first
