I agree with you. But lately I've felt like many articles I come across are so negative it's ridiculous. Like we can't inspire, or give hope, because the outcomes aren't guaranteed. Nothing of significance is guaranteed. There's going to be some risk. You need to weigh the risk yourself. While survivorship bias is a thing, we can't be so stuck on being 100% correct all the time (news flash, you won't ever be) that it cripples us from helping/inspiring others. Give advice. Inspire others. I'd rather someone tried on my advice and failed than failed to try anything. With that being said, don't sugar coat the truth. Accept that success takes some luck. But not "going for it" guarantees failure. Work hard, and you'll "make your own luck" eventually. Be lazy and you'll accomplish very little in your life. Working hard and failing at some thing is going to grow you and most likely open up other opportunities for you.
