My kids assume they will never own their own home. They had their education trashed by covid. It is hard to be ambitious when you see success as impossible.
I’m an ambitious guy with lots of success and I work day and night. But I’d never reckon bravery in someone who’s working day and night, they have it easy, since they ecosystem is answering positively to more work from their side. So I just had to bring in the work. Oppositely, when the economy pulls of down by your bootstraps, it takes real courage to be ambitious.
