During that time, I have become progressively more and more frustrated with the state of self-help.</p><p>Let&#8217;s go through some of the things that drive me crazy in the self-help space: I frequently see the same information posted over and over just for views. I see horrible advice given all the time just because it sounds edgy or cool. I see authors preying on the desperate and confused. I see good information buried under piles and piles of useless drivel. And I never see all the good information in one place&#8212;it's always so spread out that you spend more time hunting for new information than actually implementing it in your life.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://learningtobesuccessful.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Subscribe for free to support my work.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>I take each of these instances of poor stewardship of the self-help community personally. I take them personally because I have unknowingly consumed ideologies that were detrimental to my success, only to realize too late their pernicious impact on my life.</p><h2><strong>Learning to Be Successful</strong> exists for two reasons:</h2><h4><strong>#1 I will try to at least partially fix the problems I see in the self-help space.</strong></h4><p>My goal is to fix these problems I see, but I am not a self-help guru. I will publish the most useful information, no matter the source. Although I have many original ideas and philosophies, I don&#8217;t care about getting my ideas out. I only care about aggregating the most useful information in one place.</p><h4><strong>#2 I was already doing this, just privately.</strong></h4><p>I have been keeping track of ideas that I find useful for just under a decade and writing about them privately. The only difference is that I will now be publishing them online in hopes that other people can learn from them and possibly teach me a thing or two.</p><h2>The Goal</h2><p>The goal for Learning to Be Successful is for it to be a place that has all the most useful information to help you become more successful. No BS.</p><p> </p><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://learningtobesuccessful.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Subscribe for free to support my work.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coming soon]]></title><description><![CDATA[This is Learning to Be Successful.]]></description><link>https://learningtobesuccessful.com/p/coming-soon</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://learningtobesuccessful.com/p/coming-soon</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Learning to Be Successful]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 03 Feb 2025 20:50:18 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ac3A!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F04e18885-fcf2-4aee-83f8-d55d6ce3d4c3_774x774.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is Learning to Be Successful.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://learningtobesuccessful.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://learningtobesuccessful.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
