总是有一些文章说那些出生在富贵之家的人要长得比你好看、有更好家庭背景，但是这些人工作也要比你更加努力一些。

Are you a loser if you were raised in an ordinary family? Should you feel guilty that you sleep eight hours a day because Ivanka sleeps five?
如果在一个平民之家长大，你就注定是一个失败者吗？因为伊万卡一天只睡5小时，所以你就该为自己睡了8小时而感到内疚吗？
If you just want to keep a stable nine-to-five job, does it mean you are not ambitious?

但是平庸有什么坏处呢？除非你是一个健身狂魔，否则你真的有必要一周去5天健身房吗？
Do you need to take hundreds of selfies and Photoshop the selected ones to post on WeChat?
