Last month I had a talk with my cousin who has a well paid job and hassle free life. I checked some high school classmates on social media and they also seem to have achieved a lot. How do these guys get all they want while I struggle to get what I deserve. Is it luck?

I think many people's lives are harder than they seem when you only get a superficial glimpse on social media or from what they tell you in a conversation. That's not to say some people don't have it better than others, but all we can do is live our own lives as best we can. I'm sorry about your struggles.
