Self-Destruct? Really?
Well, no. Yes... and no... Look, if conventional approaches to personal and professional development worked as advertised, we wouldn't be surrounded by such a stunning display of mediocrity at every level of society. So yes, the focus is on failure... but the goal is anything but. Ultimately, the goal is to reach heights we never imagined possible; ultimately, the goal is to achieve that idyllic utopia we sense is possible yet remains out of grasp when we reach for it directly.
How to Self-Destruct is the wisdom of the WWII and Baby Boom Generations, packaged for those of us who were weaned on Sesame Street and raised with The Simpsons. It's sharp, accurate, quick, and most of it is light... except for those parts that unapologetically stick it to you right in your eye.
