Self Help or Help Others?

Posted by Marcelo Bermudez

Self-help is a $ 44 billion industry.

The ideal customer wants a quick fix without commitment.

It often isn’t quick, but they buy into it anyway.

The more I thought about what I wrote, the more I realized my book was about helping others.

Are you doing what you do for the short term or the infinite – like creating a legacy that will last generations?

Treat your job or business as an act of service, not only a way to make money.

You’ll find joy in everything you do.

Why are

Joy is not from comparison, but the advancement Strategies
