I saw that long ass article about fixing your life (I didn’t read it). I think needing to fix yourself is weak, it implies you are broken or deficient in some manner. Here is some free alpha. The trick to getting to what you want or where you want is absolute delusional levels of self confidence and being absolutely sure of yourself. There is no other way, you must psyop yourself you can’t doubt yourself for even one millisecond. So how do you do that? You just pretend. You act like you’re in a movie playing a role that you want to become in real life. You must play the role, the character, like a method actor. Want to get promoted? Just start acting like you already are and people will promote you. Like if you are good at acting like it you will just get it. Want to get wealthy? Just act like someone who already is wealthy. Take on their traits and people will give you opportunities to do so. Want to be smart, an academic ? Just act like you are one lol go talk to professors read research papers, ask questions. Sooner or later people will think you really are a grad student or a post doc lmaooo. It’s easy. Just pretend you are someone you’re not. That’s the trick.
