Idk who said it but self help comes down to that ancient greek philosophers axiom “Know yourself.” Know your emotions, your past, your behaviour, motivations, desires, relationship style, socialisacion your dispositions, strengths and wounds. That is the foundation for all really. Get to know yourself. Self exploration can give your life meaning.

The real self-help secret is balance, but different people have different biases so the changes necessary to achieve balance are different.

Timid pessimists need to learn the power of yes.

People-pleasers need to learn the power of no.

Procrastinators need to work more.

Workaholics need to work less.

Narcissists need to be considerate of others.

The insecure need to be considerate of themselves.

Trying to read every self help book for maximum mental health is like taking every pill in your medicine cabinet for maximum physical health.

Excellent depiction of the capitalism-ism of mental health.

“Red pill or blue pill?”

Depends on what party I’m going to 😎
