Ah, but getting what you want is not necessarily getting what you need.

Wants just represent the ways in which we feel incomplete

The nice (?) thing about the shitty mcDs graveyard job is that, probably, no one has let you borrow a million dollars yet, so you don't have to pay it back. If you also don't have any dependents, well... You're probably in a better spot than you realize.

This type of person is extremely annoying and comes across as both desperate and incompetent, don’t follow this advice. The phrasing of these "voicemails" reminds me of the time I purchased an expensive piece of equipment specifically through eBay because I didn’t quite trust the buyer, and then was bombarded by such a pity parade after the equipment didn’t quite work (the delivery was another story of astounding incompetence) that I cancelled my eBay return request out of a combination of disgust and the desire to never interact with that person again.

Besides, "I want to be rich, help me" is only going to attract bottom feeders, who will then proceed to feed — on you.

Do you have an alternative path to take that can replace that block of text?

exactly.

I think:

- make a list of 3 top things to do the next day that help get what you want

- get a good night's sleep

- get up and exercise first thing

- do the three things

If this wasn’t written by AI it sure is good at sounding like it.

I will never get back the 150 seconds that I spent skim-reading this half-baked nonsense with increasing disgust and disbelief.
