There’s this issue that people always talk about, sometimes the successful ones come from poor families and sometimes the rich ones becomes poor.
Then we come up with explanations such as it was their “environment” that taught the poor ones to save money and thus become rich while it was the rich one’s fault for living a decadent lifestyle.
Of course these things affect other aspects of life other than wealth but the Question is
Are people really the product of their choices or the environment they live in?
I think it can be either one or both. And sometimes the choices we make are actually the results or a combination of our choices and our environment. Therefore, at times, the circumstances of the environment do compliment/ help in our decision making, and vice versa.
In my humble opinion, I don’t think there is a clear cut of what makes us following a decision we made (product of our choices/ environment we live in because they can be either one or both). However I beg to differ in the context I am about to expound on though I may offend some people – I do know that the decision is the right one if it is from and confirmed by God. It has to come from Him and reaffirmed by Him. That is the Truth that His Word teaches.
