Planning for the Future

I select People Skills and click the confirm button. The screen flashes and a notification pops up saying: "Upgrade Activated! Your ability to connect with others will be enhanced." A slight buzz tingles through my body before fading away.

What was that buzzing, could this app really work the way it says it does and change me? No, I'm sure it's all just some new age pseudo-science bullshit meant to trick people into thinking they are better than they really are.

I'm ready to move on and finally be done with this app for now. But wait, there's still more to go through apparently. The next screen says:

For the larger improvements for your life, you will see that the total price is more than you can get in a day. That is because you need to save up to get these improvements. A small bit of love over time, or a huge focus for a few days – the choice is yours. But focusing on the future is a core part of improving your life.

Please save 5 hearts towards an upgrade that has a cost of more than 25 to continue.

Ugh, fine I guess I have to pick something now so this thing will let me get back to my life. Looking at the options:

Social Butterfly (40) - Become the life of the party and be able to effortlessly navigate social situations.

Career Climber (60) - Get ahead in your career by networking with influential people and taking on more projects.

Dating Diva (50) - Attract your dream partner through confidence and charisma, becoming irresistible to potential dates.

I guess I should focus on my career since that's what I'm trying to get started with right now. So I select Career Climber and put 5 hearts towards it before hitting confirm. The screen flashes and shows the upgrade now at 5/60, along with a message: "Career Climber - 5 hearts saved! You are one step closer to achieving your goals."

Now that I've done what this app wants, maybe it will finally let me get back to my own plans for the day.
