The Craving Mind

Ok but if I start meditating will I get better at life automatically? It is unclear, but I have downloaded three guided meditation/mindfulness apps to my phone to try it out (for reals this time)

One of the criticisms in another review had to do with whether using mindfulness to not be bothered by things mind not lead to a world where all the destructive people have taken over because we just turned the other check. I wonder as a woman whether this will just let people walk all over me more (why get angry about uneven chore divisions when it is faster and less bothersome to just do them?) why have all the mindfulness/Buddhist texts I've been picking up been written by men?
