Self and Self-Management

A master of the early self-help genre, Arnold Bennett offers a refreshingly frank and practical guide to mastering the most complex subject of all: yourself. In *Self and Self-Management*, he eschews vague platitudes in favor of concrete habits, systematic planning, and the honest cultivation of willpower. First published in 1910, this book remains a remarkably modern blueprint for anyone seeking greater focus, resilience, and purpose. This volume presents the complete, unabridged original text, enhanced with a new introduction that places Bennett’s work in its historical context and expert reader’s notes that clarify key ideas and connect them to contemporary life. Bennett’s voice—sharp, witty, and utterly without sentimentality—speaks directly to the reader, urging us to take command of our own minds and actions. Part of The Classic Success Library.
