Self-Help Wisdom Often Goes Unheeded
Repetition of self-help messages can lead to an awakening, revealing that much of the advice is unoriginal and echoes what is often heard from parents. Many individuals find themselves requiring a 'guru' to validate these ideas, despite them being simplistic. The challenge of delivering effective advice to a broad audience is evident, as not every message resonates universally.

However, genuine understanding occurs when facing life's adversities, casting doubt on the efficacy of previous advice and highlighting its limitations.
