I used to scoff at self-help. Then I found out it works
I thought simple life advice was a step towards narcissism – until I started listening to an upbeat California podcast
It started small, like all the most insidious addictions. A moment of indecision over what podcast to listen to next – more Brexit analysis or another gruesome cold case centred on a woman’s corpse? – and I was sucked in. Now, I mainline two or three a day. But at least if the problem becomes unmanageable, someone will have a solution to offer me.
For my entire adult life, I have not merely scoffed at but actively militated against the self-help industry. On a macro-level, I resented the simplicity of the solutions on offer, seeing them as capitalist sops designed to winkle out their victims’ weaknesses and create a cycle of cash-rich dependency. On a personal level, they offended my carefully nurtured, aggressively deployed intellectual defences; where I would bring Proust, they brought a Hallmark card. How stupid did people have to be to sign up to their vacuous bullshit?
