For ordinary people with mediocre qualifications and no resources, the first thing to do is to manage their expectations for future living conditions.
Only by lowering expectations sufficiently can one see reality clearly and act based on the actual situation.
Otherwise, it will generate a lot of meaningless emotions and mental exhaustion, which can reduce one's comfort in life at best, and at worst, interfere with major life decisions.
Ordinary people should first cultivate a calm mind, rather than being controlled by greed, anger, ignorance, arrogance, and doubt.
