But what is the point of even trying if I can't succeed even if I played by the rules and do the "right thing" and if some monster will just take or ruin everything I have done?

Try telling a poor person who is doing everything they can just to survive. How can he focus more on providing value?

   That's adversity, which in most cases is meant to be overcome. If you aren't successful in your career, that's adversity. If your job sucks, that's adversity. If you suffered a breakup with a  BF/GF, a divorce from your marital partner, that's adversity. If your health and fitness is an issue, that's adversity. if you are in a rut deciding what lifestyle to lead, that's adversity. If you are wondering how to manage your home environment, or are divided in what hobbies or how to entertain yourself, that's adversity. If you are confused and in disagreement with a person or group with different values to you, that's adversity. If you still struggle to understand or empathize with a person who thinks differently than you, that's adversity. If you are offended because someone or a culture has a different moral system than the one you grew up in, that's adversity. If you have psychological barriers, or personality issues and struggle to relate to other personalities, that's adversity. If you find yourself peer pressured into complaining, whining, and gossiping about people or the negative parts of life, and feel too insecure to speak up for yourself, that's adversity. if you suffer from unproductive trans states, and struggle to enter different states of being or emotional states, that's adversity. A problem is like a signal, a signal to call to action, to overcome whatever adversity you come across in life. The point in life, is to live through adversities, because those adversities, most of them, make you a stronger you! The question is, do you want to answer that call to action, or not?

   Whatever the challenge, meet it head on, or try to. Don't let any other excuses stop you from being a stronger you. Nothing stop Usain Bolt from immigrating from Jamaica to America and pursue a career in sprinting to eventually become a great Olympic runner. Nothing stopped Bruce Lee from becoming an action star and somewhat of a pioneer for combining fitness with martial arts and having insane speed and power for such a small body composition. Nothing stopped Leonardo Da Vinci from continuing to paint and study and innovate other fields of life, no matter what set backs they have had to experience and over come.

This sounds like a cliché. I agree with you to some extent; however, the idea that adversity will always make you stronger doesn't always work for everybody. Many people have either been permanently crippled or died from going through too much adversity. Look at what happens to soldiers after after a battle or war. Virtually all of them either get killed or survive but become permanently damaged psychologically and physically in some horrific way. The ones who do make it back home never ever become completely healed either on the inside or the outside or both no matter how much therapy, rehab, or medicine they receive. That's why almost all war veterans live the rest of their lives in such tragic misery.

Furthermore, people like Bruce Lee, Leonardo Da Vinci, and great Olympic athletes only represent 1 and a million people that have ever existed in all of history. In fact, legendary figures in a lot of ways make me feel discouraged because I know that unlike them I was born to be a mere mortal for probably the rest of my life.
