Why can’t everyone be successful?

This might sound dumb, but I genuinely think about it a lot.

There are billions of people working hard, studying, trying to improve their lives, yet only a small percentage actually become “successful” in society’s eyes. Good jobs, money, recognition, freedom, stability — it feels limited.

Sometimes it feels like life is a giant competition where no matter how hard everyone tries, there still aren’t enough opportunities for all.

You see talented people struggling, kind people suffering, hardworking people stuck for years, while others get lucky at the right time and move ahead quickly.
