It's not just dissatisfaction with yourself that can change your situation

I am an ordinary person. I went to school at the age of 25 and didn’t get any benefits of state subsidies. I spent all my parents’ hard work and my only scholarship + 2~3 part-time wages at the same time. I also found the job myself. What he got was the remaining seat after the relationship household took over, and he lived alone in a foreign land. This is the reality that took me a long time to accept that I am the bottom. I don't expect any noble person to give me a little help.
Don't I want to improve my life? Of course, why else would you live!
First of all, I am the bottom, I want to have a better life, it does not mean that I "worship money".
Secondly, I do not violate the law, and give myself a stable platform without causing additional trouble; I do not take the initiative to harm others and benefit myself, and give myself a moral bottom line that I can bear.
Third, and most importantly, I have passed the juvenile inferiority complex who was dissatisfied with myself, and no longer blamed my parents for giving me a lower status than some other people around me. No more asking my parents why they gave birth to me without my consent.
It's not just dissatisfaction with yourself that can change your situation.
What I feel now is that it is a good start to accept myself and let my life not be immersed in complaints, and then work hard to improve my survival ability, I believe that the accumulation of time can make my life better.
Trying to find true love across social classes from the path of inferiority will only lead to more and more inferiority. Being poor is not an excuse for meanness, nor is it an excuse for low self-esteem.
