self-help guru's trap

There are people whose full time career is training people in self development. 

Since its their career they want to keep on improving their training material and also increase their revenue.

Any Self-help guru alive is either working on improving his existing product or creating a new product. 

What I will say is if you have the money to invest on yourself please try subscribing to their product try them. If a new product entices you and if you can afford it just give a go ahead. 

Don't analyze if it will be good or great or bad just try it. 

No harm in jumping from one product to another. You can keep on trying for even say 3 years and then you will have more pattern to realize the trap.

The trap is called new product trap. They will say the "5 things to change your life", the " 6 things to avoid" etc.

An universal solution trap which does not take into account about who you are and what will work for you.

The problem is self-help is a service industry but we are trying to make it a product industry. 

We need a guru who knows various tools and can look at a person and see what needs to be done and gives him a customized solution  

This guru will not be like the 'celebrity' self-help product guru, but he is the one you need to solve your self-help issues. 

Please do read the self-help book and also subscribe to any courses there are places for them in your self-improvement journey. 

But what you need for total transformation is a customized actionable solution for you which can be either  done by a psychotherapist or a coach as you can see that's a service rather than a product and its going to cost you more than buying a mass consumption product but you are not trying to do the thing which is cheap but the goal is efficiency.
