OverviewYou're not failing. You're just the mole. Every time you dare to catch your breath-check your email, answer your phone, or attempt a normal life-something takes a swing at you. The boss who ""needs to talk."" The family crisis. The bills. The notification that won't stop pinging. The voice in your head screaming that everyone else has it figured out except you. You've been told this is normal. That you just need better time management, more resilience, or stronger boundaries. That if you could just optimize harder, hustle smarter, or sleep less, you'd finally catch up. But the game is rigged. Life is Just a Whack-a-Mole Game exposes the truth: Modern life is designed to keep you overwhelmed. The economy needs you anxious so you'll keep spending. Algorithms need you inadequate so you'll keep scrolling. Culture needs you exhausted so you'll keep proving yourself. This book isn't about working harder. It's about recognizing you're playing a game you were never meant to win-and making the radical choice to stop. Inside this field guide, you will find: The 24-Hour Triage Plan: A ""Quick Start Guide"" to stop the bleeding when you're in an acute state of crisis. The Mallet Matrix: A tool to help you distinguish real threats (""Critical Hits"") from manufactured urgency (""Ghost Hits""). The Twelve Signs: A diagnostic to help you see exactly how deep in the ""game"" you really are. Strategic Unavailability: Practical scripts for saying ""No"" and reclaiming your power through boundaries. With dark humor, research-backed insights, and practical tools for escape, this is the field guide for anyone who's ever felt like a target instead of a player. The exit sign is there. You just need permission to walk toward it.
