>>58520016NTA but that guy is 100% correct in the following
>Complete, sincere acceptance of this is the most fundamental step to bettering yourselfObviously people are subject to their surroundings. Most people growing up in poverty are gonna die poor.
Having a shitty upbringing can significantly handicap in all sorts of ways. etc...
That still doesn't mean that most people can't take incremental steps to better their life. Believing that you can improve things in you life genuienly is the first step to improving anything.
>Id go as far as to say that acceptance of the fact that you have very limited control over your own life is an important step on the road to happiness.You certainly need to accept that you can't change everything you would want to change. You are still in command of what YOU do with the YOUR life. Even if what you've been given wasn't in your control. People mostly just live on auto pilot and while you can't just pull willpower out of your ass to be a better version of yourself, you can still improve things long term by incrementally changing your surroundings, being mindful of your habits and deliberatly aquire better ones.
