That idea is plain dangerous, and I'm only half-joking. Contemplating that fact it's easy to slowly slide into a sense of powerlessness -- which may or may not be the lesson of the vid. It's also important to remember that: That's why I had a second half of that about not using it as an excuse to give up. Or feel guilty. I'm decently well off now and I was born into poverty. It's not impossible but most people I deal with around my job or where I live don't share my origin story.- Political Ocean's 11
It's more that when people succeed we have a tendency to think we've done it all on our own and on the strength of our merits when in reality the best advantages we can get in life have nothing to do with us personally. And no, I'm not suggesting anyone born better off should feel guilty or that someone born with tons of disadvantages should have an excuse to give up but you probably don't have to look very far to find someone looking down their nose at someone else because that person struggles where they didn't. I can give you a recent example I saw when I get back to my desk- DLC survey
