Serial killers by night or my only story where I give advice. It’s priceless.

Motivational speakers, self-help, and self-improvement gurus — I don’t trust them, I don’t like them! I know, they mean well but for some reason, I get all cynical… It’s my problem. On so many days and in so many situations I can’t get my shit together. So, paradoxically, instead of trying to learn from someone’s experience, I am thinking: Pretenders! I don’t believe you got your own shit together either! You give self-improvement advice by day and you do sinister things by night!
