After a decade in the self-optimization world — from biohacking and peak performance to healing and spiritual development — I’ve come to a confronting insight:Self-help can become a trap.This video is a raw reflection on why I’m stepping away from the constant pursuit of becoming “better,” and choosing instead to focus on presence, service, and surrender.I’m not here to reject healthy living or growth. But I’ve seen how easy it is for personal development to become an identity, a performance, even a currency. This is an invitation to look deeper — beyond the self, and into life itself.🔍 What this video covers:00:00 – Introduction: The trap of self-optimization01:10 – My story: From burnout and addiction to biohacking and performance02:50 – The problem with making optimization the goal of life04:10 – The transactional mindset of healing, self-help, and manifestation06:30 – The cult of productivity and chasing perfection08:00 – Shifting from “self” to “service”09:20 – Letting go of control and trusting life’s natural flow11:00 – Fulfillment comes from forgetting yourself, not perfecting yourself13:00 – A new direction: living in surrender, beyond self-help15:00 – The hamster wheel illusion of success17:00 – Being of service: energy, family, community18:00 – Final reflection and invitationThis video is for anyone caught in the self-help trap, burned out from biohacking, or questioning the obsessive drive for personal growth, optimization, manifestation, or healing.
