Deepak Chopra has been an influential figure in the alternative health movement and an accomplished medical, alternative practitioner. His most important books are Timeless Mind, Ageless Body and The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, each printed in 1994 and 1993 respectively. However, it wasn’t until sometime in the late eighties that he ventured into the realm of self-help writing, with his first book, Think and Grow Rich.

Although a controversial figure who presents himself as a guru, his novels attract a wide range of readers. The principles he promotes have had the effect of establishing him as a leader in the alternative self-improvement circles. However, there have always been critics who question the methods that he adopts. Deepak Chopra critics claim that he takes a random approach to self-improvement through motivational saying and self explanatory books. They also point out that his teachings contradict the common notion that knowledge alone will lead to self-improvement.


However, this does not necessarily mean Deepak Chopra’s influence goes beyond the boundaries of alternative medicine. He is still very much a part of the mainstream medical care community. For Instance, when he published the book, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, he used the book to launch an initiative for the United States Army. The book was later turned into a television series and currently has over one million copies in print. There is even a movie version of the publication available on DVD.

Additionally, Deepak Chopra continues to hold many credentials beyond the classroom. For instance, he’s the author of numerous medical publications and is a certified chiropractic physician. Additionally, Deepak Chopra is a former contestant on the reality TV show”Survivor.” In this show, he was portrayed as a contestant who fought with a serious heart condition. Because of this, he held many discussions about improving one’s self-health through diet books, seminars, and speaking engagements.



For example, a number of the top speakers will tackle issues like self-esteem, confidence, motivation, and perseverance. All of these are important and may contribute to our overall happiness and well-being. What many speakers do is emphasize that there are many ways to approach self-improvement. They encourage us to think about what it means to be motivated. As they state,”motivation starts with a desire to change.”
