Most people will end up with an ordinary life (the "median path") - you simply can't have say a hundred million extraordinary people in a nation of 300m. Unfortunately, with the current programming which shows being average/ordinary as something lesser, a lot of them are going to end up seriously bummed out by where they end up in life.
- wolverine876 4y agoI see what you mean, but I disagree with the conclusion: First, everyone grows up and discovers they won't be an astronaut or Messi or President; it's not such an emotional hardship. Much better to reach for your dreams and make the best you can of them than to never have tried. There's nothing wrong with a little failure, (and less wrong with a lot!).
