Where you live dictates your life

[Royal Cap]

Yes indeed everyone has their own control, we can determine what our lives are like by not caring about the surrounding environment. In my own neighborhood, there are many adult women who work in factories because it is difficult to find a more decent job so the last choice is to work in a factory but with my sister she refused to do that because she thought she could get another job that was more decent or comfortable, as a result now she is an affiliate whose daily income is quite large and even beats her husband's salary when compared to the month.

Sometimes what we call self control is actually the result of opportunity. Your sister tried but she may have had an opportunity that not everyone else has. Many people in the same situation can't take risks even if they want to, because they are afraid that if they fail, their family won't survive, So I think not only desire, but also time, opportunity and mental preparation play a big role.

I mean, we can not judge others based on what played out with the decision of a single person. if you are resident in an area that has an industry that is thriving well, chances are high that anyone that is resident in such an environment will will want to build his or her career around that sector. with that, deciding to go into something different from the conventional thing every one is doing might mean an higher risk and so anyone that is taking that level of risk should be someone that is ready push above the ordinary.

As much as where you leave has influence on you, you have the final say in what becomes of your life per time because you have been given free will by the creator of the world to determine what direction your life should be headed.

Living within the surrounding doesn't mean is what determines everybody within there because opportunity come from preparation, someone must actually say what they want to with determination regardless of the surrounding because I could use your sister case of study to illustrate what it could be because if she had joined everyone who thought they cannot go above the factory she might have not gotten the courage to leave there. So actually were a person stay doesn't dictate but it only influence the person because of people living around to discourage and implore the person to all manner of things.

It is true that the environment has a significant influence on our lives and future, but I think this all comes back to ourselves, as you said, we can't choose where we were born and we also can't blame God for why we were born in a less than ideal environment. I think when we have strong life principles, no matter how bad the environment around us, it won't affect our lives and future hopes. We see that beautiful lotus flowers emerge from mud, and a proverb says that fish in the ocean don't become salty, even if they live in a salty place. In other words, when these principles live within us and in every step we take, then no matter how bad the environment, it won't affect us. Try to think positively and think positively about God, perhaps we were born in that less than ideal environment, even if we're not a prophet, perhaps we were destined to be able to improve that environment. A pearl is still a pearl, even if it's in dirty soil.

Your point highlights the importantance of mindset for successful outcomes in life. As we know the environment around us shows our personality but it doesn't shows our potential and no one can pridect our future according our circle. As we seen many people choose to work in factories as source of income and this way is acceptable because its common resource of earning around the world but your sister choose a different track she wants to get job in a field where her skills actually interpret and obviously its the most comfortable source of income for because its meets according to her desires and skills. And through this way earns even more than her husband because he don't pick the way which is easily available but he find the way which actually according to her skills wher he could work more potentially. So the learning point is that we should believe in our qualities and find the best way which meets our abilities and trying to something new.

And I conclude that if we have a belief that has a positive goal or can lead to something better, then it is not wrong to do it, even if it is said to be risky, it is not a bad thing. That is what I conclude from my sister's case.

But in this case, of course, what you have lost is true. Mental strength is indeed quite important and plays a significant role, because achieving results that can make us sufficiently satisfied is certainly not easy. There will be obstacles that arise, and this is where mental strength is tested.

I think in your sister case, we can conclude that environment only present collection of probability such as job opportunity, wages, living cost, education & health access, sucurity and social guarantee, the result from processing opportunity choice is depend on each personal character. But what we often forget, environtment give big influence on how we describe "a normal life", how we define success & fail, pressure tolerance level and decision making pattern. Example, in consumtive environtment, debt is something normal, overshopping is previledge not showing bad financial literacy. Strong personal character and internal system can protect us from environment bad influence, system mean good habit not temporary motivation, when we have good habit, we have our own value and not normalize something bad in our environment common practice. Not all local norm is healthy and not all social habit, we must follow. Its mean we have control in our life without avoid our environment.

I support the fact that the location of a person plays a significant role in life, including employment or welfare. To take an example, an environment where there are job creation opportunities does give a lot of development opportunity. However, it is not the only aspect that defines the life of a person. The cost of living, education and social support is also another factor that can be considered to be many. The reason is that you can still decide where to go in life even in places with little opportunities provided you are motivated, skilled and putting efforts by yourself. The environment and the individual working hard is still the combination of success in life but the choice of place to live remains important.

That is the importance of strong determination and self-confidence. We can do things differently from others, and it can develop well if we are confident in doing it.

Because, as you said, it's true that if he doesn't have the courage or strong determination, he might choose the most popular option, which is working in a factory with an income that is only enough to meet his needs for about a month. Sometimes the problem is not the result, but the influence.

People can complain about any type of obstacle they may face, could be network, could be coming from poor family, could be anything, doesn't really matter. You know what my family is doing right now?

My family is in a small town, doing financially poorly enough that my dad is not even celebrating his 65th birthday because that would be expensive, so they are going to just stay at home and eat a dinner like always and just cheer for it, not even a cake, just normal dinner with my mom and watch tv and go to sleep.

You think he complained? He got up, worked hard, and provided his family with everything he possibly could.

[ecnalubma]

We have no choice in where we are born. Some are a little unfortunate to have been born in struggling countries while some lucky to have been in good countries but there are ways to get out of that place and choose somewhere else to stay. So when you are deciding where to move, what do you consider?

The idea that our birthplace is a matter of luck rather than choice is a humbling realization that highlights the deep inequalities built into our global system. While it is true that many people seek to relocate to centers of commerce or production to secure better job opportunities, the decision to move is rarely just a financial calculation. For most, leaving one's home involves a difficult trade-off between economic stability and the loss of cultural roots, family support systems, and a sense of belonging. Choosing a new place to live requires a careful balance of practical needs, like the guaranteed jobs you mentioned, with the less tangible factors like safety, social integration, and the long-term quality of life for the next generation.

Beyond just the availability of work, a critical factor to consider when choosing a new home is the social and legal infrastructure of the destination. Moving to a city full of factories might provide immediate employment, but one must also evaluate whether that environment offers a path to personal growth, healthcare, and education. True luck in choosing a new country or city isn't just about finding a place where you can work, but finding a place that treats its residents with dignity and provides the freedom to build a life beyond the factory floor. Ultimately, while we cannot control where we start, the courage to seek a better environment is a testament to the human drive for progress and a more equitable future.

To an extent, you're correct..where you live can affect your life in many ways. From the quality of the schools you attend down to the kind of work you do. Also, you wouldn't be expecting to be exposed to opportunities when you live in an underdeveloped environment.
But somehow most people still thrived under such circumstances.

Truth be told. Two persons can grow up in the same environment but end up living different lives altogether.
Yes our environment can 'Try' to shape us and our choices..but what we make of those choices matters a lot.

Yes you can actually move from a ghetto-like environment to a fancy city and still be living the life of a ghetto kid there. So your mindset plays a major role.

I like the last part of your comment. It is unlikely that some people are limited by their current environment or location. Sometimes it’s true that we can’t choose our environment but there are things we can control, like how we relate with our immediate environment and how we allow our environment to affect and influence us. People who are industrious and innovative don’t allow the limitations of their environment and surroundings to affect them, instead, they seek out those limitations and sort for ways to improve them.

Agree to waht you said, as there are people who's not just content with what their environment can offer but instead they want to exceed to that said limit and do their best fullfilling what they think can still be done to improve their state, not limiting their capabilities and accept whatever their environment do offer but to find ways to improve and be more successful creating their own ways to show that there's no limitation if you are keen to find that success.

[Uhwuchukwu53]

I agree with you to some extent, surely our environment can influence us most times. But this is not basically for everyone but for those that would want to be influenced, because I have seen a lot of people progressing but looking at the background they came from you won't even believe they would grow to that extent. So it's more about decision if you feel that the environment you're coming from is not conducive for you of course you can get up to make a move this way you would never remain the same.

it is all about allowing yourself to get influenced, although this is almost impossible to avoid based on what you are always exposed to constantly, this can affect your mental construct..it is not easy to actually avoid getting influenced by your environment but if your mind is disciplined enough that's something that is very possible to achieve..where you are doesn't determine how far you can get

Both point are factual, " permission of the environmental impact to act on the very personal" this play a very vital role in human I see this as determinants, even if environmental influences can act it depends on the open minded of the individual. Though some certainty played out as who ever that is subject to change will definitely be influenced by the environment, let me digress, some ladies today who acted the role of house help in some wealth home where there boss take them as their own without discrimination has the opportunity to meet some wealth people who showcase interest to marry them , I know the story of a governor in my state whose house help has opportunity of that kind whose the man later became a governor. Environment in general dictate even when the person is not too subject to change can be changed as the force's keeps pursing.

[Yorubek]

It is true that the environment plays a very important role, through the environment a person's thinking and knowledge develop, through the environment people's high aspirations are created. However, it is not wise to blame wherever we live or the environment we live in, we should have the mentality of creating high thoughts from wherever we are, because we cannot change the environment if we want, so instead of blaming it, we should think anew and lead our lives accordingly. The environment can bring a lot of changes in people's lives, but it is not at all right to regret what we do not have, we have to move forward with what is in front of us, we should not stop or get disappointed, we have to move forward.

Well said, people are just complaining about the obstacles they encounter and using them to blame for their failures.

It is undeniable that a lack of a good environment, foundation, or relationship can significantly impact our lives. But these should not be excuses for our stagnation or failure. Because there are many way to improve those things if we are determined and take action

Truly successful people never blame circumstances, instead, they blame themselves for not trying hard enough. Only failures tend to blame the environment, circumstances or other people.

I think it's not that they don't blame other people or circumstances or the environment and so on, but people who have advanced thinking always think about finding solutions where their problems are in an environment that doesn't support them, then they will look for a new environment to develop, or the problem is in someone who makes you hampered, then they will avoid people who make them stagnate and or in situations, they will realize that their situation is not favorable for development, so people who think openly will look for ways to change their situation and enable them to progress further, so that's the way of thinking, more precisely, people who have thoughts like that tend to his life is better, he knows who or where the problem is so he looks for a solution so as not to be in a relationship and be in a place like that.
