-> Become friends with people who are at where you want to be in life.
-> Accept that any actual outcome in life is never guarenteed - so even if you do everything right, you still might not get it. But if you never try, you certainly won't.
-> Don't bitterly blame differences in success on things you can't control, like having rich parents. It might be true in some cases, but whether it is true in any particular case or not, all this thinking does is disempower you, and make you unhappy, reducing your chances of success.
-> Be grateful for the success you've found in life even while you pursue something better. If you always delay happiness until you reach some fabled promised land, you will be miserable on the journey and underwhelmed by the destination.
-> Realize that failure and stagnation are a normal and natural part of the process, as progress in most things in life is almost never linear. Expect accompanying feelings of frustration, bitterness, and dispair, as these are part of life. But also remember that these feelings, like all things, are temporary and are not indicative of your long term ability to succeed.

First define what "success" means for you.

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Another good point. The OP implies material success, and that is not all of success.

What does "doing everything right" even mean? Why does it sound like you were taking about religion - the gods will hear your prayers, so do pray but it's not guaranteed to work because the gods might have other plans.

"Do everything right" as in "do what reasonable experts and experienced practitioners in X field say is the key to success diligently"

gods will hear your prayers, so do pray but it’s not guaranteed to work because the gods might have other plans.

I mean.... yes. That is life. I'm not religious, so I would call it random chance, not "god". But the end result is the same. If you want some kind of guarentee that you will be successful and achieve all your goals and dreams and live happily ever after no matter what... then you are looking for a fairy tale, not a realistic description of the world and how to achieve your goals. Luck, hard work, and smart descisions will all play a role.

Yeah, you can get a great degree or trade apprenticeship that should guarantee a good financial life, but be fucked by the market deciding your career is no longer as needed, or too many people got into it at a similar time or even you got injured in a way that prevents you from utilizing it. Life happens. A good strategy is a good strategy even if it doesn't work, and a bad strategy is a bad strategy even if it does work.
