Edit: Luke fixed the problem with the post.
Bad specific examples. The world is unfair and poor, and not everything is actually possible for everyone, even though a lot more is possible than people may expect. People shouldn't need to deceive themselves about the extent of what's possible, to do what is possible. So agree in spirit, but not literally. Otherwise, a great post.
I agree with all this whole-heartedly, so... which sentences of my post suggest otherwise to you?
"And then you play 'Flight of the Bumblebee'." Likely won't happen even then. Likewise, "Want to become economically independent? Don't feel overwhelmed watching Tim Ferriss at work."
The examples could be something to be explained by the ideas you discuss in the post, but you identify the reader with them too much (at least connotationally, by the context in which you mention the examples).
The 7th paragraph now makes this clearer. Thanks for your comment.
