Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The Ultimate Self Esteem Guide
Jeffrey Powell · 2014
54/100
👎 Skip It
The distinction Powell draws between self-esteem and self-confidence is a genuinely useful framing, and readers report practical utility when they engage with it seriously. But self-published, brief, and with no independent editorial review, there is not enough here to separate it from a crowded field of similar titles. The box-set pairing with a 'Mind Control Mastery' title is a minor flag worth noting even if the standalone is benign.
