My advice is; if the system doesn't work for you, stop supporting it... Instead, try to reform it. If you know it's impossible for you to win the game, you need to focus all your energy on changing the game. It probably won't work out, but at least the probability is not 0.

If you're a frog in a boiling pot, the only inspirational thing you need to hear is "Get out of the f*** pot."

This is the way...

Its too bad some people just don't get it but I don't blame them. There's usually decades of indoctrination that need to be undone for critical thought in some areas.

Its actually refreshing that there are people out there that still tell it how it should be.

Thanks for saving me a read. I was skeptical from the title, and there's so much GPT-based articles out there now that its getting hard to tell ahead of time before time has been wasted.

That is awfully empty of actual advice though. What does this even mean? Don’t make games for money? Don’t make games at all? Move to a cabin in the woods?

It means all of these things. The worst thing you can do for yourself (and your future happiness) is to support the system which works against you.

The only reason the system appears to work for some people is so that it can use these 'successful' people as a propaganda tool to fool the remaining 99.9999% of the population into supporting the system.
