I'll admit, I'm a self-help nerd.
I find it interesting all the ideas and ways we can better ourselves and development into the person we want to be.
I've read my fair share of personal development books, but I'm specifically drawn to ones that have short, organized chapters that are digestible.
Here are my 3 favorite personal development books that are less than 200 pages.
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz
The Four Agreements are agreements you make to yourself.
This was a great book to pick up when I was feeling stuck, doubting myself, or worrying about what people think as it focused on finding personal freedom.
The Four Agreements are be impeccable with your word, don't take anything personally, don't make assumptions, always do your best.

How to Not Always Be Working: A Toolkit for Creativity and Radical Self-Care by Marlee Grace
When I was feeling burnt out or uninspired, this was a great book to pick up.
It took me through healing my creativity and time by creating boundaries in my life. This has great journal prompts at the end of each chapter to help me reflect.
The book took me through identifying what is my work, where do I work, what is not my work, what are the gray areas of my work, how to now work when not working, taking a break, and more.

The Yamas and Niyamas by Deborah Adele
Although this is a book about yoga's ethical principles, this can be read by non-yogi's as well.
This book was great to focus on developing 1 aspect of myself at a time. It really dives deep into ethical principles I can focus on apply to my own life.
This book took me through nonviolence, truthfulness, nonstealing, nonexcess, nonpossessiveness, purity, contentment, self-discipline, self-study, and surrender.
