- Find meaning in consumerism
Discard your grievance about wealth. Wealthy men did not necessarily amass their wealth at anybody else's cost. Thomas Sowell is on to something crucial, and has been for decades.
- Learn to laugh at suffering
Do not participate in the suffering of others out of solidarity, as far as it would be harmful to you and hinder you in your own success. You are not useful as somebody with good intentions and a good heart in the world, if you yourself break of it. “Please put on your own oxygen mask before assisting others”, as flight attendants instruct.
- Work yourself to exhaustion
Take what you do seriously enough. Nobody will be able to do the work the way you do, and if they are, do something you take seriously yourself.
- Abandon your dreams
You won't be becoming an astronaut any time soon. You're not 7 any more. Act like it.
- Become insane
Reject conformity. While there is value in living as god and our own ancestors intended it, do not force yourself to live life in ways you do not find spiritually fulfilling.
- Stop observing objective reality
News media and most entertainment these days is garbage. Expose yourself to it frugally, and be vigilant about how such things manipulate your world view.

If you say so. The grownup children out there seem hardly able to tell such things apart. Maybe talk to your company's DEIA department if you need a permit for your dreams changing.
@mar77i ah, an aggressive self help know it all. 🍻
Not really. I'd tell you to abandon that dream of yours, but that didn't work the first time around, did it. 🍻
@mar77i maybe "don't cling to your dreams, allow them to change"
