Yes, opportunity is a belief, in reality there are plenty of opportunities, it takes imagination and hope

It depends if they're realistic or not. Without that, the hope portion disappears.

Then one has to weigh if the job is worth it. With the high cost of modern living (shelter, taxes, healthcare) one might decide it's better not to work and just rely on assistance programs (I know someone like that).

It takes imagination and determination. Finding the windows when the doors are closed. Not giving up on failures.

Unless you're locked in a room with no doors or windows.
