Self-Help Books for Students: Unlock Your Potential!

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking self-help books specifically tailored for students to inspire, motivate, and improve their management of student life. While Milan Kundera's works are recommended for their reflective nature, the focus shifts to books that directly address the challenges faced by students, particularly in overcoming bad habits that hinder academic performance. Suggestions include well-known titles like "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People," emphasizing the need for resources that explicitly target the issues young adults encounter. Additionally, a suggestion is made to consider consulting a cognitive-behavioral therapist for more personalized guidance.

Anything by Milan Kundera. The link between motivation/student life is not a direct one. Hoever, his books ponder upon many aspects of life and therefore make one reflect. I found them to be amazing.

Thank you Fragment & Goldbeetle. Books that both of you have suggested are indeed great but I want books that deal explicitly with the the students or young adults. Well let me elaborate: I am a third year under graduate student and I have loooots of bad habit, which are severely hampering my studies. So what I want is the self help books which explicitly deal with these problems and suggest me the way out.

Please help me. I am indeed in great trouble.
 
I suggest you discuss your problems with a cognitive-behavioural terapist.
 
The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...
I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
