#穷人的本质在于缺乏野心吗? #

In the digital age, a voice reverberates in the sea of networks – self-proclaimed "mentors" who tell the story of poverty, from lack of rich thinking to short-sightedness to fear risking business. These voices attract a large number of followers, as if they have mastered the secret to getting rich. However, does the wealth of these "mentors" really come from their so-called rich mentality? Or is it just a ploy for the wealth of your followers?

In society, most people are still on the margins of the economy, they are eager to change the status quo, and they dream of freedom of wealth. Naturally, the market has spawned "mentors" who claim to lead people to success. They package themselves in flowery rhetoric and sophisticated concepts such as "raising awareness" and "broadening the landscape", but are these really the keys to escaping poverty?

Is the essence of the poor a lack of ambition?

Let's dig deeper into this question. First of all, do the poor really lack ambition? The answer may not be as simple as the "gurus" claim. In fact, a long life of poverty has inspired a strong desire for change, and their pursuit of wealth may be far greater than we think. Look at the corrupt officials, whose greed is often a direct reflection of the poor life of childhood. Isn't their pursuit of money a manifestation of ambition?

Let's take a look at ROSE in "Titanic", although she was born in the aristocracy, she does not have a strong pursuit of money. This is in stark contrast to the poor who aspire to get rich. Does this mean that the ambition for money is not the root cause of poverty?

Is the essence of the poor a lack of ambition?

In China, there is a strong desire for wealth. People are willing to give up many for wealth, including morality and dignity. This shows that the Chinese do not lack the ambition to get rich. However, even with the improvement of education standards, not all college students live a prosperous life. This further proves that the improvement of cognition and the broadening of the pattern alone cannot directly lead to the improvement of economic conditions.

So, what exactly is the nature of poverty? A simple analogy can reveal the answer: if the average height of an area is low, then most people will naturally appear short. It's not because they're not trying hard enough, it's because the environment they live in itself limits their possibilities. Similarly, the root cause of poverty lies in the underdevelopment of the productive forces of society. With limited productivity, only a few people are able to enjoy a life of affluence, no matter how they get there.

Is the essence of the poor a lack of ambition?

Therefore, the key to truly solving the problem of poverty is to increase social productivity so that most people can enjoy a prosperous life. It's like raising the average height in an area so that most people have "long legs". Only when we fundamentally change the structure and productivity of society will we be able to give everyone the opportunity to realize their dreams of wealth.
