In 2023, the self-help industry was worth $41.2 billion. Self-help book titles alone tripled from 2013 –2019. And there’s no slowing down – the industry as a whole is projected to reach $81.6 Billion by 2032.
Big numbers. Why does this matter though?
Many of us, despite having such easy access to an overwhelming abundance of information, find ourselves still struggling with problems of discipline. Specifically, with problems of overeating, under-exercising and under-sleeping (as it pertains to this blog and readers of it).
Driving the point further, not only is there such a huge market for supposed “solutions” to our problems of poor discipline; we are almost constantly exposed to TikTok reels teaching us “10 Tips to Sleep Better”, talk show hosts promoting the newest book on how to ‘hack’ our mental and physical health, celebrities and influencers advertising their favorite new guided meditation phone app.
There is an unrelenting stream of products, services and content promising to change our lives by helping us build better habits – of diet, sleep, exercise (and even parenting, productivity, marriage and friendships).
But our bad habits of unhealthy procrastination, avoidance, distraction and even substance abuse persist.
