Not to belittle you kid's efforts, it's a great feat they've achieved, but it sounds like survivorship bias. You can do everything right and still fail. Being in the right place at the right time and having the right connections matter.

Or is it just a "fake it till you make it" kind of thing? I definitely haven't got shit together, but I've learned to juggle and balance all my problems to perfection so that outsiders could easily mistake it for "having shit together". You should just focus on who you are and be the best you you can be. "Having shit together" is mostly a relative metric which is good for measuring the masses, but not fair to measure you personally.
These affirmations do not all clash with capitalism. I also don't agree with all of them, not all jobs are real and valid. We had a guy at work, nephew of the boss, who was facility manager... from abroad. Also got payed way too much and was bought out when the company was taken over. It was not a real job, it was nepotism and he was handsomely rewarded all along the way for doing absolutely nothing while we all had to pick up the slag. Life isn't fair or equal and cheaters get rewarded. These affirmations work for them too, because cheaters can also just happily define their own worth and their own succesfullness and it'll be good for their soul. So these rules are not the holy grail, there is no such thing. Just common sense and good conscience.
Won't someone put this thing out of it's misery?
Same place you get bull milk.
And that's how ~~I met your motger~~ the homeless problem becomes the prison problem
That just makes job hunting suck even more. Now you need to also check whether LinkedIn gets you hired or passed on.
This is the origin story
Thanks, that was worth the click :)
It's been tried and tested. Human bodies barely slow a car down. It's much better to place something solid, like a concrete block
Is this a political shitpost too?
That's exactly what badgers do in the stories of Beatrix Potter
