I'm thinking about writing a self help book.  There's a huge market for that stuff and it's easy.

First you convince people that there's something wrong with them.  That's easy because marketing has already conditioned people to feel insecure about their weight, looks, social status, sex appeal, and so on.

Then, you convince them that the problem is not their fault and that they're vicitms of larger forces.  That's easy because it's what people believe anyway.  Nobody wants to be responsible for his own situation.

Finally, you convince them that with your expert advice and encouragement, they can conquer their problem and be happy.

The problem I want to help people solve is their addiction to self help books.  It's called, "Shut up and stop whining:  How to do something with your life besides think about yourself."
