Why Self-Improvement Is Ruining Your Life

The feeling of getting better at the things you love. If you are starting to go to the gym, it feels very good.

If you are a piano player and you have been getting better at your improvising skills.

It’s very good to improve, but if you look closer on the internet.

Self-improvement is treated like a hobby. Your wife left you? There is this bold self-improvement YouTuber, you should give it a try.

Improving yourself is a Nobel good aim. But one thing that I think is that the internet self-improvement groups want to intentionally or not intentionally sell it as a fix to everything.

Saying you can improve yourself to the point where everyone loves you because you improve so much. You have the body and the money, you are so charismatic.

But when you say it out loud, it comes from the feeling of not being enough.

People didn’t achieve their things just by being very good at self-improvement. They are not obsessing over their perfect daily routine or trying to stack their vitamins so that they can see through walls and unlock their third eyes.

Self-improvement is useless when instead of socializing you read a book on socializing to become better at it.

I for example didn’t socialize at all but just read books on it. I felt like an alien locking myself in my house and just reading trying to learn it.

We get sabotaged on reading and trying to self-improve.

It’s better to just go out there and start living it is not your main hobby. It should just improve your life, not become your life.

It’s like you are blocked in a castle practicing your perfect swordsmanship, while there is a war outside the castle and people need you. You may have the sharpest sword but you don’t know how to use it in real life.

Conclusion

It’s better to break through with a dull sword than to be stuck inside with the sharpest sword.

Go try things in life and sharpen your sword along the way.

Will you do it?
