This week topic is a topic that is wide and debating, people argue a lot on this topic, different definitions and explanation from different views ,I will be saying mine based on my point of view too .
Do poor people stay poor because of mindset or system failure? This topic always surface whenever we are talking about growth, struggles and progress. The truth is poverty is caused by many things, not one, when we look at both the physiological and emotional ways. Mindset is very powerful, it's imfluence you see yourself,it influence how you make decisions,the choices you make, how you take risks and opportunities but the fact that mindset is powerful doesn't make it replace resources,the struggle is the real even with great mindset,just that the fact still remains that "Mindset" still matters.
Some mindset has been a set back for many people, the fear to take risks, the fear that they do not have say, the mindset that money is everything,the mindset that they can't think bigger or further when they are still struggling to feed. Poverty is not just lack of money, it's touches what people choices and what they believe is possible.
Mindset don't just come out of no where ,it is shaped by what by our environment, the world around us.
Education,sponsors, mentorship affect us, someone that carries responsibility early will never have the same mindset with someone that has helper all her life, their imagination will surely differs , this, poverty can be said to be caused by both mindset and a failed system.

A broken system can kill dreams ,it can even kill motivation before it forms ,it's no news that opportunity are not fair, the statement "you use what you have to get what you need" is very valid, they use it in many factors that provide works, it's either you attend a high quality school or your family has connections, " A PhD degree with 4 years experience" what's the hope of someone that only struggles to have a BSC and has no experience??? Government making living more hard for the less privileged instead of helping and supporting.
They say "poor people have poor mindset" not that it's a determination but bcos they are shaped by the low exposure and access they get.
How can one break these cycle?.
Here are some things that have helped me and I'm still sticking too
Ask questions, don't keep mute,try to learn from everyone.
Don't say you are not capable, you are not enough, conquer fear and go for it , ready to face failure,see failure as stepping stone and not ending.
Don't just start, be consistence. Whatever you choose to do, consistency only brings the good results, don't work only at your convenience time, work bcos it is needed for a better result.
Build a skill, be as perfect as you can be on that skill, learn each secret and technique of that skill.
Don't stop reading ,don't stop learning, learning should have no stop.
Our background has been written already, but we get to write our new chapter.

You're welcome.
Our mindset sometimes becomes a big challenge in our lives and hinders us greatly.
If we are not in the circle of those with positive mindset, those who are optimistic in life and has drive, and then coupled with system failure 😨, we are totally doomed.
