Who has time to develop all that when you're burned out, pushed to your limit at your job that barely covers your primary expenses?
I know, not the whole picture, but neither is what you're saying. The first thing you list is ambition? I hope that's not in order of importance because I don't think most people lack ambition, I think they get stretched too thin and feel its hopeless no matter what.
Financial responsibility, life skills, these are important issues and more should be done to improve quality of them for the population. But discipline and ambition require a world where those get rewarded, and for some lucky people they do, but for many that's just not the case.
