We grew up wanting
so much out of life...
A successful job
A passionate romance
A thriving friend circle
But as we grew older...
We tried to go after success, but we ran into setbacks, defeat, and failure.
We tried to flirt with girls—only to be called “creepy.”
We tried to go after a career—only to end up in student loan debt, and with the job we wanted beyond our reach because we lacked “prior experience.”
We tried to have friends we could bond with and trust—only to have all our relationships fizzle out.
Whatever we tried to do
the world said
"NO!"
Time wore on, and we began to accept that achieving what we wanted wasn't possible.
And in the absence of understanding why, we only blamed ourselves.
We felt worthless.
And slowly but surely, we started giving up. We told ourselves it didn’t matter. We told ourselves that we were fine with the way things were.
Ultimately, we stopped caring.
We started to feel that our lives weren’t up to us. We came to feel that things “just happened.”
We lost our sense of control.
As you drifted on, your anxiety grew. You began searching for answers—for relief from the burden of your own suffering.
You discovered “self-help.”
You may have turned to Stoicism—it promises a sense of control.
You may have turned to Zen Buddhism—it promises peace from anxiety.
You may have turned to Jordan Peterson—he promises relief from suffering.
You may have turned to the endless sea of YouTube videos—promising results from “NoFap,” cold showers, 7-day workout plans, and becoming an entrepreneur.
No matter which of these you turned to...
you only ended up feeling more dead inside, more hopeless.
You may have reduced your anxiety a bit, or found a little more structure in your life…
But are you happy?
The self-help movement has lost sight of the whole point, the goal, of self-help:
YOUR HAPPINESS
You’re on this earth for only a brief time: you should make the most of it.
Self-help should be a yellow brick road leading to our fulfillment, flourishing, and happiness.
Not the kind of momentary, fleeting happiness that fades—but a long-term, enduring happiness that stems from the pursuit and achievement of your greatest passions.
Happiness NEEDS passion, caring, desire, ambition, motivation, and a love of life.
Self-help can only see an endless escape from pain, suffering, anxiety, and depression
Self-help has forgotten what it's trying to escape TO.
Now it only gives bad advice:
These all neglect happiness in favor of escaping pain.
What we need is NOT an escape from a negative, but a path toward the positive.
The end goal of self-help is and should be our own happiness, a happiness that sets us up for long-term success & flourishing.
We need a change of perspective.
What if, instead of killing the ego, we nurture it?
What if, instead of not caring, we cared deeply?
What if, instead of living a boring life, we lived a passionate one?
To change our perspective, we have to go back to the beginning—to where we first started questioning our self-worth and stopped caring—and start fresh. We have to discover that happiness lies in reigniting our self-worth and our passion for life.
We have to discover Core Confidence.

What is Core Confidence?
Core Confidence is the fundamental conviction that you are capable of living and worthy of living.
It's more than having the confidence to ask a girl out. Core Confidence is the part of you that isn’t shaken or hurt if she turns you down.
It's your fundamental confidence in yourself.
Core Confidence is the power of life.
It's your inner lifeforce. It’s the part of you that wants to live, knows how to live, and isn’t afraid to live.
Core Confidence consists of three “C’s”:
- Conviction - knowing what you want and that it’s right to want it
- Control - directing the course of your life
- Caring - taking your values & passions seriously
Core Confidence is about taking your life seriously.

Who are we?
I’m Eric
I’m Jonathan
We’ve been through what you’re going through now
As early as the preteens, we become disinterested, apathetic, self conscious, and unable to be satisfied with our lives.
At 14, we started to lose that childhood feeling that we could do anything.
This feeling was replaced by a darkness we couldn’t explain. The feeling that we couldn’t achieve what we wanted, that we “weren’t good enough.” Our excitement we had as kids was replaced by an insipidity we couldn’t explain or overcome.
- We felt like life was just so complex and hard to understand that it felt impossible to really know anything.
- We were told that caring was weird and unnatural, and that cool people don’t care.
- Our emotional range dropped almost entirely to where we would rarely feel much of anything.
We felt powerless to change.
We Found Philosophy
Around the age of 14, we also found philosophy, and specifically, Objectivism. Objectivism showed us a completely new way of thinking. It gave us…
Conviction
The idea that we can know the truth of things, that we can understand ourselves and the world around us.
Passion
One of the most critical elements of Objectivism is that it ties valuing, the act of caring, into the nature of life itself. That having a passion in life is really what makes life worth living.
Happiness
With these ideas, our emotions started to come back to life. We saw that our happiness is the goal of life and that all the things we care about in our lives is what builds that happiness.
We saw that our culture is philosophically corrupt
With Objectivism, we began to see why we, and those around us, were having issues with depression, anxiety, and apathy. We saw that it was what we were being taught — we saw that it was the philosophic ideas our culture promoted.
Our teachers, books, movies, TV shows, celebrities, scientists, friends, family… The whole of our culture is promoting ideas and lifestyles that are driving people to despair. People struggle to function on a basic level, not because it’s the natural state of humans, but because we’ve been taught ideas that go against the very fundamentals of reality. We literally don’t know how to live on the most basic levels anymore.
We’re being broken by the culture.
Philosophy Wasn't Enough
Knowing Objectivism and having this perspective on the culture helped us tremendously. But even though knowing this helped a lot, it wasn’t enough. We knew what was wrong with the culture and ourselves, we knew the theory, but we didn’t quite know what we should do about it.
We didn't know how to change.
We Found Self-Help
We found the world of self-help and this idea of changing habits to create a different life was part of the missing puzzle piece. We dived deep into many different self-help gurus who spoke extensively about habit building. But the deeper we dove into the self-help guru's works, the more we realized that they weren’t really diverging from the cultural norms.
- They’d frame their work not as a means to build a happy life, but as a means to escape suffering.
- They’d tell us that it’s our ego, that part of us that cares, that’s the problem.
- They’d tell us to stop caring so much. It's the fact that we care that leads us to feel disappointed with our lives.
Not only did the self-help lack real depth, but the only depth they did have was just the same ideas we had worked so hard to escape from.
In the end, the world of Self-Help felt shallow.
It Was Up To Us
It was up to us to put the life-oriented philosophy of Objectivism and habit building practicality of Self-Help together. Once we joined these together, we created the perfect means to build a new life for ourselves, to truly live independently from the culture that drags us down. This is what started Helios. Helios is here to offer you what we spent over 17 years to discover and create: the only means to truly overcome the difficulties and the evils of our time, and the ability to forge a new, happy life for yourself.
