4 Personal Growth Books to Kick off 2022

I hope you are all having a wonderful start to the new year! I’ve been looking forward to setting my Goodreads Reading Challenge goal for 2022. I first started using Goodreads back in July 2021 when I was getting back into reading. I set my goal and was able to surpass it. That inspired my goal for 2022. This year, I am looking forward to reaching my goal of reading 100 books.

As we start this new year, many of us are working on creating better habits. For me, I am focusing on and prioritizing personal growth and wellness. As you may know, I am a huge fan of self-help books and review them here often. If you are as well, I hope the books on my list will inspire you to pick up a copy, or browse the genre and find something that speaks to you. I’ve got a pile of books waiting already, but I’d like to share a few that I’m really excited to read. Here are 4 personal growth books to kick off 2022.

1) Don’t Be Trashy: A Practical Guide to Living with Less Waste and More Joy by Tara McKenna
Genre: Sustainable Living
Publication Date: January 4, 2022

We’re all trapped in a wasteful convenience-based cycle, but Don’t Be Trashy offers an alternative: an approach to reducing waste that emphasizes progress over perfection. McKenna guides you month by month through a year of reducing consumption. Ultimately, it’s about changing your mindset to one of minimalism and conscious consumption—a mindset that’s as good for your wallet and your well-being as it is for the planet. Don’t Be Trashy will guide you to your best life—one with less waste and more joy!

  1. Nice picks! I’m going to check out the first one for sure. I’m very interested in sustainable living and how that can help our mental health.

  2. Thanks for reminding me. I will start with the last two books, Everyday Mantra, and the seven spiritual laws of success.

  5. These all sound great! Keeping Don’t be trashy on my list as it would be a very helpful read for sure! So glad you got back into reading and hope you get to read some amazing books this year x

  6. I got a bit behind with my reading last year, although I did listen to a few audiobooks. I can’t remember when I last read a self-help book though. I’ll take a look at these.

  7. These sound like really interesting books, especially the first one, it’s so easy to get caught up in a cycle of just buying things, it’s something I’ve really been working on the past few years so I think I’d really enjoy that book! thanks for sharing!

    Hope that you had a lovely weekend 🙂

  8. Thank you for the recommendations! I’m definitely interested in reading Don’t Be Trashy as I’ve been slowly making sustainable switches to reduce waste & the book seems useful for that

  13. I really like reading personal growth books and I love the sound of Everyday Mantras. I hope you complete your 2022 reading goal x

  14. Ooh great selections here! I haven’t actually read any personal development books but I’d love to read some this year, they seem super helpful. I think 365 Days with Self-Discipline sounds like such a great place to start, too – I’ll have to check it out! Thanks for sharing x

  16. These four are a very different idea of personal growth books but I like them, might actually try the “Everyday Mantras” since I love motivational quotes, these look perfect. Thanks for the list.

  17. I’ve been looking for some PD books to read this year and your post came just in time, will definitely check them out 🤍

  20. I read “365 Days of Self-Discipline” a couple of years ago and found it quite inspiring. It was a bit too much for me at times and I don’t agree with all his suggestions but all in all it was a great read. I hope you enjoy it too.

  21. I haven’t really read any self help books. I’m sure these massively help though. I’ve got a friend who loves reading things like this and says they massively help her. The fourth one sounds like it’d be up my street.

    Claire. X

  22. I haven’t read a good self help book in years! I like the sound of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra. Although not self-help, I’ve just finished The Dry by Jane Harper which if you like murder mysteries it’s a good read 🙂
