When life gets tough, some people will turn to various self-help methods. These could be in the form of books, a daily mantra, routine activities, motivation camps, or even sessions with an expert in the field.
Any method of self-help are generally upfliting and motivating, to help lift an individual out of a rut or a bad headspace.
However, there are times when we need to take a more realistic look at life and know when to give up, for our own sakes.
One self-help “guru” who made a name for himself on social media has been imparting words of wisdom that may sound counter-productive at first, but is oddly soothing and reassuring too as he tells you that in a way, everything will be alright.
How Masood Boomgaard’s character resonated with over a million people
In an age where humans have made significant progress in psychology, Masood Boomgaard presents a new kind of therapy via comedy.
On Instagram, where he has already amassed nearly 2 million followers, Boomgaard’s “Self-Help Singh” character imparts advice and wisdom that is the opposite of motivational.
His viral breakthrough came from a video he posted on social media where he tells viewers to just take a sick day if they cannot tolerate difficult clients and bosses.
Many have also joked about hiring Boomgaard as their therapist, saying they have more trust in him and feel that they should be paying him for his advice.
Disclaimer: Self-Help Singh is there for those who just want a hilarious demotivational character to get them through the day. Those who have a serious mental condition should seek a qualified and licenced therapist.
Ironically, Boomgaard was also struggling with mental health issues during the COVID-19 pandemic. Eventually, he found a creative outlet through his online persona that helped him through it, which also made him famous.
