I’m not a big fan of self-help books. At worst, they can be outright dangerous, giving bad and borderline-illegal advice to people in desperate situations. At best, they seem to rely on empty platitudes and vague motivational phrases. A specific one that springs to mind: Be the best version of yourself.
What does that even mean? I think it’s trying to say that everything you need is already inside you, so just operate as best you can within the parameters of your life? Sounds like something someone who has a lot of money would say.
