I consider myself an Existentialist also (among other things, and not exclusively). But probably in a somewhat naive way. It is true that you wake up every day, and have the ressources to change yourself, even if not everything, and not all at once. But I couldn't give you a round-up on the philosophy -- for me there are just some truths and wisdoms in Existentialism which I've added to my intellectual formation.
Concerning "tips". I read a lot of Camus in my teens. I always liked him better than Sartre, because he seems to be more of a writer and less of a preacher.
