It sucks

Those suck. You wont learn anything you dont already know. If anything it makes for good workplace conversation. So as audiobooks theyre far better than brainrotting radio but nowhere near a good book. You will simply coach yourself for 18 hours for what you already know. The worst self help books are for meditation. Im thinking The Mind Illuminated might be better but these are the archetypal self help trash. Appeals to success in business are a joke. You want promising inherent virtue you can immediately walk away with as a skill or fact or wise thought. These books just present successful people and construct narrow narratives around their success to coach you. You are better off fighting your own battles with specific clarity. The world is a lot smaller for you than it is for all those success story characters who only exist in those narratives that ignore literally any pressing matter of our age that worries anyone paying attention to anything important like: THE BANKS, THE GOVT, WOMEN. Success in spite of the obstacles doesnt sell because people dont like to hear about obstacles period. They just want to be told they can be a little less lazy and dumb if they just NO! They have no heroes journey! No grand goal! No purpose! No feeling! No consequence.
