Second chance

Some people try to make the point that you only get so many second chances. Once you get past one second chance, you don't get any more second chances, you're already on your third chance.

Once you die, you stop at the second chance, the fourth chance, or the chance you were on, but you never get another second chance after you've had one second chance.

Normal

Life has always been a bit dysfunctional for most people. That hasn't changed due to the pandemic, and it's not going to change after the pandemic.

There is no such thing as normal, and there is no such thing as a new normal. Life will remain dysfunctional for most people no matter what comes their way.

Overachiever

An overachiever outworks everybody.

Jim-I work hard, why am I not a millionaire?
Kevin- You do work hard Jim, as hard as anybody, but somehow you're not an overachiever. You have to have something inside that makes you an overachiever to be one. You're just not an overachiever Jim.
Jim- I guess not, so why do I owe an overachiever respect, that's the part of it I haven't figured out.
Kevin- Well, an overachiever gets paid for their overachievements. It's their world since they own it, they're free to push you.
