Next entry in the Self-Help Fails series:
#5 – Get Inspired!
Variations:
- Pump yourself up.
- Give yourself pep talks.
- Attend motivational events.
Why this is a fail:
- It only lasts a short while.
- It encourages a boom-or-bust mentality. When you feel low, you think you’ve failed.
- It can trap you in an addictive cycle. You think one more motivational seminar will give you a permanent lift. (Hint: It won’t.)
