I dunno, there's a lot of wisdom in books. The bigger issue as I see it is essentially that talk is cheap, and getting results takes action. The problem is when you read a self-help book you get a little dopamine boost which makes it feel like you're making progress when you aren't (at least not yet, not until you put the information into practice). I think a lot of people get stuck on these little micro-dopamine hits and never get beyond that.
- paavokoya 10y agoa lot of wisdom in books I specifically said self-help books.
- moises_silva 10y agoI used to dismiss and mock self-help advice and books. Certainly there's lots of crap out there, but someone I care about has actually been helped by a few. Not all are created equal, not all are authored by people that wants to cheat people with low self-esteem, some people actually care and has the knowledge to do it.
