 Honest and helpful September 7, 2007

This book can be life changing if you are prepared to put the effort into it. It is not a two week and change your life quick fix. It increases your awareness of how you live your life and how you can make small steps to change it. It is not easy to face all the things you avoid but by using this book consistently and persistently over time your life can change for the better. Highly recommended.
The Six Pillars really do work in raising self-esteem April 16, 2006

This is a truly excellent book. Unlike other self-help books that I have read, this author actually knows what he is talking about. Nathaniel Branden is a clinical psychologist and he uses the principles in this book to help his clients raise their self-esteem - so they really do work. Until I came across Branden's books, I had stopped reading self-help books for a long time, because I had found that the principles in them were ineffective.

This book is full of good sounding advices, but the basis is wrong. Self-esteem is not something you can boost, but you can do your best and to practice love. Self esteem is not a cause, it is an effect. In each pillar you get about 15 smaller pillars, which is simply too much. Nobody can follow all these advices. Just by reading it you may feel good for a couple hours, but why don't you simply decide to be a better human being now. You do not need these happiness books for that.

Branden At His Best: Rational and Informative December 9, 1998
49 out of 51 found this review helpful
Nathaniel Branden is the father of the self-esteem movement. When his first book, The Psychology Of Self-Esteem was published, the word self-esteem was non-existent on the cultural scene. On first experiencing Nathaniel Branden at one of his workshops, I remember thinking to myself, this is rationality at its best. Over the years, Branden's books on self-esteem have continued in this tradition. Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem appears to be a culmination of his knowledge on the subject, a broadening of experience of over 25 years since the publication of The Psychology of Self-Esteem. For anyone interested in self-improvement or growth, for anyone wishing to break free from the cycle of the past or to discover the disowned self, for anyone floundering in the world of pop-psychology or five-minute improvement courses, this is the type of book that can lead the way. Once again, Nathaniel Branden demonstrates rationality at its best.
