I disagree with this type of thinking, as if some people with the same opportunities choose the less rewarding path as a consequence of laziness.
I like the metaphor of a battle, where it's easier to apply lots of energy to the front when your flanks are secured.
For many people they are surrounded by financial insecurity, dysfunctional social structures and even unsecure psychic structures.
