Aside from glorifying hustle culture, toxic positive pieces like that fail to point out the resources the "successful" person initially had. Chito comes from a certain clan with money and connections. One might ask, "Why can't I be successful like them?", but fails to realize the difference in privileges, it can affect the person's self-worth.
