Having a decent job.
Kids.
Good friendships.
Education.
A roof over your head.
I have some of these things. But not all

Being able to set goals and reach them. I’m not good at that due to my sza avolition.
Being passionate about my work (writing and painting). I’m not good at that either due to anhedonia.
At least I can read and look after my husband still. (Most days).

I just need a husband and then I’ll be close to having it all. Security, a place to stay, income
for bills, and free time to explore self actualization.

Success is having a college education with a degree or two, a more than adequate income, money in investments, rental property, a nice place to live, a loving pet, a loving family, lots of hobbies and interests, a great exercise regimen, a job either paid or volunteer, a wonderful, fulfilling religion.
I have all of these things.

Um, about that. You’re assuming there’s no worldwide pandemic, lockdowns, concomitant job losses, and an inability to pay rent on the part of your tenants. Just a bit stressful, especially if your finance company is run by ogres with peen breath.
