You Can’t Fix Stupid: How to Stop Wasting Time on the Wrong People and Focus on What Actually Matters

For years, you’ve poured your energy into helping others—mentoring, coaching, advising—only to watch people ignore your advice, repeat the same mistakes, and drain your time without ever making real progress. You’ve believed that if you just explained things clearly enough, provided the right resources, or pushed a little harder, you could get them to change. You were wrong. Some people don’t want to be saved. They don’t lack intelligence or opportunity—they lack the willingness to change. And the harder you try to fix them, the more they drain your energy, sanity, and success. 🚨 It’s time to stop trying to fix stupid. 🚨 In You Can’t Fix Stupid , Jeff Borschowa lays out the hard truth about people who refuse to grow and teaches you how to break free from their gravitational pull.
