You don’t get help by going to rich and famous people for advice. Nor do you get it by trying to hex the gods with some spell. You get it by putting yourself in a position to Nature or the gods where they want to help you without being asked. They have to like you, and they don’t like creepy money-grubbers who are always asking them for cash or cars or power. They like people who have high ideals and who are pursuing worthy, unselfish goals, against all odds. They like people who thank the gods, rather than doubting them or blaming them or haranguing them or asking them for undeserved boons. As I have said before, it is not what the gods can do for you, it is what you can do for the gods. You are their servants, not the reverse
