We live in a self-help society. We all have the slogan “Yes we can” tattooed on our foreheads. And this generates many more problems than we might think at first glance.
In a society without limits where your desires are the limit of your dreams, there are no longer poor people but losers.
Why is that?
Because the reason for your poverty does not depend on other external factors. Now it depends only on you.
We live surrounded by success stories.
People stories who had it worse than us and still became rich.
So if we don’t manage to get out of poverty and fulfil our goals, we are losers.
“The violence of positivity does not deprive, it saturates; it does not exclude, it exhausts.”
