That's a nice outlook you have, and I wish it could be more relatable. The things you're "not worrying about because you can't change them" are actively ruining that entire dealio though. You don't need to be thinking about them all the time to do the bare minimum and simply acknowledge that they are current issues, and will remain to be issues until fixed. It also takes little to zero effort to be aware of the fact that "pulling yourself up" is not always viable, precisely because of these issues you've been "not thinking about". The issues give zero fucks about if your or anyone else is thinking of them. They are still making simply surviving, its own problem.

Crying about it doesn't help anyone, but to say these people just need to "dust themselves off" when you are actively ignoring the issues that are preventing them front being happy or comfortable (not rich, literally just surviving not at the edge), is extremely rich. All that says is you got your piece, and think that means everyone can get theirs. It disregards the possibility of different external and personal conditions. Either of which can, and are, a significant blockage, to that path of progress you refer to.
