How to Suffer... in 10 easy steps

Show Guest: William Arntz

Exactly! We all suffer, and yet rarely do we address the issue directly. The one thing everyone does is rarely talked about. We talk about the external: events and peoples and conditions that create suffering, but hardly ever talk about the internal: the state of suffering itself. Bringing suffering out of the closet and into the light is what this book is all about.

Author William Arntz takes on the self-help world with his irreverent, poignant and insightful book on the topic, How to Suffer... in 10 Easy Steps, which drives so much of what we all do: Suffer. While self-help promises success, love and abundance in 5, 7 or 10 easy steps, it fails to deliver more often than not. Whereas the only thing that is easy to do is suffer. We all do it and we all don’t want to. It’s that easy. But by seeing how we easily fall into suffering, one can take steps to knock it off. Following the easy steps are the slippery steps to end suffering. Yes, we all fall into suffering, but there are ways to get out of the rut. Buddha kicked the suffering habit, why not us?
