Stop Being So Entitled — You Have More Than Anyone Who Has Ever Lived Before

From the moment you were born you were born into a world of information, access to knowledge beyond what anyone dreamed of, and all at the tip of your fingers.

If you can read this then you have more resources than anyone else who has previously lived!

And yet, here you are complaining about your life.

You are complaining that not everything turned out fantastic, complaining that you do not have all the money in the world, complaining that you do not have the same gifts the others have around you and complaining that your life is not perfect.

What makes you so damn entitled?!

Just a few hundred years ago people had to fight for their survival!

Everyone had to work for food and shelter since they were children, and if you ever happened to get a disease it would be game over immediately.

Now, you are living in a world where everyone lives to be 70 years old or more, unless something really bad happens.

You are living in a world where you can get any and all education you need for free online!

And are living in a world where so much knowledge is available that it is outdated within 2 years of it being discovered!
