Many people discredit PMA (Positive Mental Attitude), saying that it is not the secret to success but a result from success. If someone allows themselves to experience life then they will gain an awareness of which a positive attitude is a by-product.
Others argue that PMA is simply the placebo effect in action, one?s mental and physical states change due to their expectation.
There is also a great deal of criticism toward the ?self-help? industry, arguing that it is a scam for authors to make money. This is often due to the simplistic nature of the writing and the principles.
Although many have made careers off of self-help books, life coaching, and motivational speaking, there is little evidence to show such books to be harmful.
