Современное общество пропагандирует культ успеха: будь умнее, богаче, продуктивнее - будь лучше всех. Соцсети изобилуют историями на тему, как какой-то малец придумал приложение и заработал кучу денег, статьями в духе "Тысяча и один способ быть счастливым", а фото во френдленте создают впечатление, что окружающие живут лучше и интереснее, чем мы.
