Self-Made Man Myth

Notes:

Your parents, your teachers, your neighborhood, public services, civilization.

Your rags-to-riches fantasy fails to give credit to those who contributed to your success in life. The good life you're living has deluded you into a false sense of entitlement.

You have never been alone. You have never needed to fight for survival in a hostile environment. You are literate and educated.

Don't take these things for granted.
