“You’ll feel so much better” and “it’s healthy” were the main reasons I was told to start exercising. I guess that’s true, but after lifting for 7 years consistently, the main thing I noticed that no one told me was “you’ll gain this superpower of every social interaction being a bit tilted more in your favor”. Getting a good haircut for the first time ever probably helped too. The difference in how I’m listened to and treated is clear—people are much more interested in what I have to say.
(Off topic, but I wish there was something like an aesthetician shop, focused empirically on appearing as good as possible. They could give you a haircut, recommend you clothes, do your eyebrows, etc. I think these exist but my guess is that the real thing is in a walled garden, i.e. you have to besomebody. I’d love this because I don’t really care how I look personally—I’d want someone to figure that out for me)
Maybe I’m missing something but your wish can be fulfilled by hiring those different specialists separately (which is likely to be better than a bundle anyway).
Yes. But I’m not sure that I have the expertise to recognize the expertise of all of the different specialists. I need to tap into some network that has already credibly sorted the experts. The expertise of the package deal may be more legible?
Not sure, sounds like you’d still have to recognize the expertise in this package, or of a package-creator. There are benefits, what I was saying is you don’t have to wait for it.
