The self-help playbook is broken: Why conventional advice fails people who want to live an authentic life

The article from DMNews discusses the limitations of conventional self-help advice in fostering authentic living. It argues that traditional self-help often promotes a one-size-fits-all approach, which can be counterproductive for individuals seeking to live true to themselves. The piece highlights that such advice typically focuses on external achievements and societal expectations rather than internal fulfillment and personal authenticity. It critiques the oversimplified solutions like "think positive" or "follow your passion" for not addressing the complex, nuanced nature of human identity and life's unpredictability. Instead, the article suggests that true self-help should encourage self-discovery, acceptance of one's unique traits, and the courage to live according to one's own values, even if they diverge from mainstream success metrics. The author, Jus, advocates for a more personalized, introspective approach to self-improvement that respects individual differences and life's inherent messiness.
