That quiz really didnât have to call me out like it did. In case your wondering: Messy Perfectionist. It stings but itâs true.

We all know how it ends. Itâs not a happy ending, she doesnât win. We all know that. But she also does win. Throughout the book she held onto to her core principles, her beliefs, she put Americans first, she never played into the dirty tricks. Iâll probably spend the rest of my life wondering what could have been. But also grateful for her work. This book really helped me understand her as more than just a candidate, more than just a Vice President, it helped me see her as woman in a manâs world, just like myself and many others. The most qualified in the room, but no one wants to let her sit at the table. But regardless of what they threw at her she kept her head up. Truly inspirational. Because if she could handle all that in 107 days, and mind you has had an incredibly successful career besides being VP, I can do anything. Even if it doesnât always workout maybe you do just have to stand in it. đ I hope sheâs proud of her 107 days. Had I known she would have lost, in every version of this life I still would have voted for her. She isnât perfect, she never claimed to be, but she chose us > billionaires and that means everything.

I know how this ends. But thereâs a part of me that wishes for a different ending, one where she wins. One where we all win. As I read, it makes me hopeful but then my mind flashes back to me crying asking âHow could they? I thought we were all on the same page? How could they vote for him again?â I donât want to keep reading, because I truly donât want to relive the ending. But I think I owe it to her to see it through. Because it truly is enjoyable. I just hate sad endings.

What if what goes by the name of innovation is ultimately just an opportunistic exploitation of gasps in regulation?

Review of "Becoming Supernatural" by Joe Dispenza: A Wallet-Emptying Journey!
Title: "Becoming Broke-natural: The True Cost of Enlightenment!"
Rating: â
ââââ
As someone always keen to explore the mystical realms of mind and matter, Joe Dispenza's "Becoming Supernatural" seemed like the perfect read. Envision a book that promises to elevate your consciousness to the stratosphere, only to realize it's tethered to your wallet!
Let's start with the good: Dispenza's narrative is engaging, sprinkled with anecdotes that make you wonder if you too might start levitating in your living room. The blend of science and spirituality is like a smoothie - you know it's healthy, but you're not sure you like the taste.
But here's the catch - just as you're getting into the metaphysical groove, you hit a roadblock. The book subtly shifts gears, turning from an enlightening read into what feels like an extended infomercial for Dispenza's retreats. And not just any retreats, but ones that could rival the cost of a small island! If youâre looking for a gateway to another dimension, this isnât it. Itâs more like a portal for Joe into your bank account. I thought I was buying a book, not a teaser trailer for his luxury retreats. The content? Promising. The hidden agenda? As transparent as Casper the Friendly Ghost.
This book couldâve been a spiritual odyssey, but it felt more like a high-pressure sales pitch. Imagine my surprise when I realized the âsupernaturalâ part was the price tag of his retreats. The real miracle here is how he makes your money disappear.
The chapters increasingly feel like teasers, offering glimpses of transcendental experiences that are just out of reach - unless, of course, you're willing to pay the price of admission. The promise of bending reality begins to bend your budget instead. Itâs like going to a magicianâs show only to realize the only trick they know is making your wallet lighter. I give it one star because zero isnât an option and because the cover looked nice on my coffee table. If you want a journey of self-discovery, maybe start by discovering a different book.
In conclusion, "Becoming Supernatural" is like buying a ticket to a magic show, only to spend the entire time being asked to buy more expensive magic kits. It's a journey, alright - one that might just take your bank account to an alternate dimension!
