Right, I just think it's important to acknowledge that these restrictions are due to our own priorities, and not imposed on us by someone else. There's far too much victimhood, and I think a simple mental shift of acknowledging that any restrictions we see are self-imposed can really help with life satisfaction (i.e. grants some level of control).

For example, I have always wanted to start my own business, but chose not to because it's too risky. I have obligations to my family, and I haven't yet found a business idea that I can be reasonably confident will provide adequately for them. I'm still free to go pursue a business idea, I'm just deciding not to because stability is more important to me than the possibility of wealth.
