07 Create difficult situations without being aware of it!
In the recent pair of episodes, you've gained expertise in morphing into an enigma to others, and in elevating money and appearances as the pinnacle of importance. Today, we're on a quest to investigate how you can kindle that chilling sensation of isolation within yourself.

Once this mindset is in place, it's only a matter of time before the hushed whispers of others will start to echo in your ears.
