At the same time.
Like a 100m sprinter would often aim to run *past* the finish line, as opposed to fixating on the tape which could lead to them subconsciously slowing down…
And just like martial arts instructors would often also tell their students to transfer their energies "beyond and through", as opposed to simply stopping at the superficial point of impact…
So too, the "Art of Rizz" training [that Arroe and Meatius had signed up for at the small cost of $1 000 000 each and undergone] also advocated, amongst other things, that it was often a good strategy to avoid overfixating on a goal per se, and instead to focus more on doing the right things one step at a time, which, counter-intuitively, [especially considering the often-high stakes involved], often meant judiciously letting go of trying to control the outcome, and instead, organically enjoying the process and experience in the moment ✨🌻💖
Of course, out of gratitude to our esteemed readers for their all-in-all amazingness, we would naturally aim to provide you with a "Friends of Bobverse" ~"Insiders Membership Pass"~ on the house, so that we could all access and follow along with some of Bob's discoveries on his journey of becoming a true Grand Rizzmaster - and which he had packaged into the 'Become-a-Hero' training program so that everyone could benefit*
*provided they could afford it. ✨🔥🌻💫🤔🤭
- and also to add to the entertainment and experience of reading the novel…
You're welcome ✨🔥💖🌻🤭💫
(O-Oh… you say you're touched and want to share some Powerstones…?!?! Thank you for your contribution !!! 🤭✨💖🔥💫🌻 Sending some Divine Energy x2 back at you 🤭✨🌻💫💖🔥 )

Of course, as always, Pep-Z Guy, with his piercing intellect, as usual quickly pierced through the outer lacquer, the gilded gloss, the suspicious sheen, and sheer veneer of 'respectability' that belied Author's shameless techniques with well-experienced ease, but it was too late, since Author had already written the next paragraph after this one…

"Now now dear, Author is quite nice to give the esteemed readers an ~"Insiders Membership Pass"~, making them honorary "Friends of Bobverse", don't you think?"
Socielle Activisté soothed.
Pep-Z Guy huffed, initially miffed but then measurably more mollified, such was the delightful dopamine hit from the sweet Socielle latching onto his arm, an interaction which made him considerably more calm.
"Oh… I… suppose… what's the harm?"
Socielle suddenly manifested a more mischievous manner as she moved a bit closer, before whispering into his ear…
"Dear… do you think… the offer applies to us too? I mean… after all, it *is* multi-million-dollar value…" ✨🤭( 🤔✨)
…Was it too good to be true?
Pep-Z Guy frowned as he felt, intuitively, that something was wrong, but somehow it seemed the pros *did* clearly outweigh the cons…
