You probably read self-help content with a skeptical eye. You want useful content, but once you start reading, you’re looking to poke holes in it and write it off as an article that serves the interest of the writer, but not the readers. Truth is, you should be skeptical of anyone giving you advice about […]

Phrases like ‘path to success’ might make some people want to throw up in their mouths in a little bit. Life isn’t all about success. The self-help industry has bastardized our notion of the word — making us feel like we have to be perfect in every area of our life and reach the top […]

I wrote an article about quotes for winners because winning is important, especially in today’s culture. Nowadays people frown upon the idea of winning. You’re supposed to be modest. You’re supposed to be content (settle for less) instead of chasing your dreams. Yet, when you look at some of the people we admire most, you […]

Certain truths can’t be measured. There’s no ‘study’ that can ‘prove’ them. That doesn’t mean they’re not worthwhile. I rely much more on these phenomenological truths because they’re proven to be true over time through the experiences of many people.

These are important questions to ask because we’re currently in a time where self-improvement is needed the most. It’s been one hell of a year so far. I’m publishing this at the […]

Anyone who guarantees success is a charlatan. But, there are traits you can adopt that dramatically increase your odds of being successful. That’s what you want, better odds. And if you embody these traits, your odds will be so high that on a long enough time scale success is likely. People of all races, genders, […]

Here is the self-help guru everyone hates. He’s a white man, 6 foot 3, and good looking. He has a high IQ, comes from an upper-middle-class family, and graduated from an elite university. After writing one article, he goes viral, and builds an entire career from a random moment of success, telling you how you […]

How’s that for a gaudy headline? Look, if you know how to properly study self-improvement you have the cheat code to life itself. Sometimes, I sit back and think, “I can’t believe people don’t know this stuff.” All the answers to everything you’d ever want to know are right in front of you, but most […]
