From my personal experience.. Getting your shit together is mentally satisfying, rewarding and fuckinnnn beautiful.

It simply is setting any goals you have and then achieving the fuck out of them.. (Weight loss, paying off student loans, trips to far off lands, education, sports, becoming a top chess player. etc, etc.)

But..

The only dark side to "getting your shit together" is that if it benefits "them".. "they" will find out. Your friends might say something about what you're doing, Your family might say something, Coworkers. The only mammals you should trust are animals. No joke.

Even hitting the gym/weight loss is something. But they don't give a fuck if you maxed out your Town hall 10 in clash of clans. Or finally setup your satellite relay system around kerban using remote tech 2 in kerbal space program.

Even the hommie the ice cream man get's hit up by "them".. "they" ask him questions like.. "so.. what's your name??".. his name is on the side of the fuckin ice cream truck. They're just checking him.

It is my understanding "they" are interviewing you. I'm probably crazy for writing this. But this is what I've seen.
