I read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" when I was 14 and have been consuming self help content for the last 30 years. Tony Robbins, Napoleon Hill, Gary Vee, books, CDs, videos, seminars, you name it. It has not helped me one bit. Has it helped you?

I read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" when I was 14 and have been consuming self help content for the last 30 years. Tony Robbins, Napoleon Hill, Gary Vee, books, CDs, videos, seminars, you name it. It has not helped me one bit. Has it helped you?

    Hanging With Steve and Ethan

    Hanging With Steve and Ethan

    I have the pleasure of hanging out with the "Auto Lead King" of Canada, Steven Scott, and his video production manager, YouTube Whizz Kid Ethan Ashley. Both Steve and Ethan are top 1% performers and in addition to recording them at work I asked them the 2 questions I am trying to answer with this series of lectures: 1) Does Self Help work? 2) How can the average Joe or Jane employ the power of Self Help in order to become successful?

    Why Self Help (Ultimately) Fails

    Why Self Help (Ultimately) Fails

    The reason that self help cannot be considered an "ultimate" bastion in your life is that it cannot answer the question of how you can be happy. Not to mention any of the other "big questions" that give your life meaning and purpose and which provide you with a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment

    Self Help and Serial Killers

    Self Help and Serial Killers

    Were serial killers born or made? What about people like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk and Gary Vee? The average person looks on in awe as these God-like figures traverse the landscapes of our collective consciousness: why do some people seem to have it all?

    Moreover, can the average schmuck like you and me become like them? What exactly does that take? There are no end of talented, hard-working and intelligent people in the world. Why do so few succeed then?

    What is success? Is it being "happy" and if so, what does that mean?

    These are some of the question that I have been discussed in these series of talks which I have entitled "Self Help Sucks". The title of the podcast is, of course, a marketing move just like the title of this very episode

    Herein I offer a brief interlude while I gather my thoughts in order to plunge ahead into the unknown. To answer, once and for all, what it is exactly that separates "super beings" from people such as myself and yourself

    Thank you for reading and listening!

    Art and "Will to Power"

    Art and "Will to Power"
