I didn't say "everybody can do it because everybody has a starbucks" I just gave one example of type of place that provides many of those resources free of cost. Name 3 coffee shops in your town that don't have electricity?
So here's a slightly more complete list for those who can't extrapolate:
- libraries often have electricity, bathrooms, wifi, chairs, and tables
- mall food courts often have electricity, chairs, and tables, many have wifi
- cafés, restaurants, and pubs nearly always will have some kind of seating and tables (correct me if I'm wrong)
- friend's houses come with electricity more often than not
- many schools are open to the public that you could probably just walk in and sit in the cafeteria and get some work done
I know some people live in amish country and don't have access to electricity, but I believe most North Americans are 'on the grid' so to speak.
The difficult circumstances of your life drove you to work hard, to hopefully succeed, to be a better person, to become who you are today.
But did it/should it have to be that way? Did it have to be so hard?
Maybe. Maybe not. I wish it didn't have to be that way - for anyone.
But such difficulties in life are what make our accomplishments so spectacular...
