Judgments about self-improvement

[arlin]

So i was talking with someone i hang out with about how life can be improved. I do self-improvement on my own, and nobody knows about it (only 1). I was talking with this person and he kept asking me the question "how do i know". He told me that internet is not a reliable source because scientist and folks always argue against each other and nothing can be knowned.

I sustained that the internet is an amazing tool for information but you have to be open minded and do carefull researches on your own, ultimately verifying everything for yourself in your life.  To me reliable informations are: People who already have improved and are teaching to others, scietific studies, books of course. etc etc. 

He kept insisting that it was bullshit and it drived me crazy a bit... 

Why are people so closed off? If i want somebody to get past that, how can i? 

I told him, it's only excuses, only if you prioritize your self-improvement (which he is not minimaly interested in), you will find the answers for yourself in one way or another. But it was useless.

I've personally found it useless to try and convince people to start self-improvement. I say just let him know the possibility is out there and if he's as smart and scientific as he seems to think he can look it up for himself.
