Ebooks from Personal Growth Resources

Welcome to your catalog of Personal Growth Resource Ebooks, Workbooks, Books, Ecourses, and Videos. Download what is useful to you. Most of these are free, but don’t let that fool you. The information contained is solid, usable personal growth and development material based on years of personal experience, education, and research findings from the new field of Positive Psychology.

What’s the Catch?

Our world, unfortunately, is one in which a person must be cautious. However, there really is no catch. At my stage in life I enjoy giving back much of what I have learned that has helped me grow and can help your growth too. You’ll find value here—even the free Ebooks have true, research-proven value. Those carrying a small charge are good values—they’re simply more comprehensive, with more examples, guides, suggestions, and recommended resources.
