You Don’t Need Another Self-Help Guru–You Need Another Story
The only real and lasting way to create change.
You’re probably living out a narrative in your head that holds you back. Call it limiting beliefs, call it your comfort zone — call it whatever you want. The story you tell yourself about yourself either holds you back, keeps you stuck, or propels you forward.
That’s why the self-improvement industry is a $10.4 billion juggernaut. But I have some bad news.
If you want to make changes in your life, diving into another self-help article while you’re on the toilet isn’t going to make it happen. Want to know the worst part? You feel like you’re doing something good for yourself. But as soon as the dopamine hit wears off, you’re right back where you started and on looking for your next hit. That’s why self-help is so addicting.
You think you’re making changes by reading another article or buying another course that promises a quick change. But nothing ever changes in your life, you only keep going in circles. Now for the scary part. You can stay on that hamster wheel forever. You always feel like you’re on the cusp of making a big change or move forward but for some reason, it never happens.
