Dr. Wayne Dyer is considered by many to be the father of self help. He published countless best selling books and had success with lecture tours, audio books, PBS programs, and regular publication of new books, but Wayne's focus was never success or fame and instead sharing the message of love and teaching. Love yourself and loves others and everything else will work itself out. His message resonated with millions of people around the world. In his works he often recounted anecdotes from his family life and repeatedly used his own life experience as an example. His self-made man success story is a part of his appeal.
