Self-help lies that keep you stuck every year

What you need to know:

  • These sayings were probably meant to inspire but instead of liberating you, they’ve quietly shamed you into thinking that if you’re not thriving 24/7, the problem must be you.
  • These self-help mottos ignore context, dismiss structural barriers and oversimplify complex human experiences into one-liners that sell better than they serve.  More dangerously some of the self-help one liners you might have  heard confuse effort with worthiness.
