Ever since childhood, you've strived for perfection: you wouldn't leave the sandbox until you'd built the perfect castle, you wouldn't put down your construction set until you'd built a house. You might go weeks without sleep before exams, but you'd still get top marks. Any mistake would trigger a fit of hysteria—you'd try even harder.

In adulthood, this became a problem: overwork, lack of sleep, coffee, and fast food undermined your health. Doctors forced you to take sick leave. Upon returning, you met a new coworker—he did everything better and faster, with a slight smile. He became your barrier to perfection. You competed for months, exhausting yourself, while he managed everything effortlessly. It drove you crazy.

In a desperate search for a solution, you found a golden lamp. It turned out to be a genie's lamp. Without thinking, you wished for complete success over everything and everyone. The genie silently granted your wish.

Luck rained down on you: a promotion, phenomenal success in small matters and at work. You rose rapidly—from an office worker to the founder of your own company. But success brought problems: too much attention, pressure, danger. You returned to the genie with a second wish—to end this success. He granted it, but you didn't specify the details. Your good fortune gave way to a streak of bad luck, even life-threatening.

In a panic, you summoned the genie for the third time. He laughed.
