Is it the system that is bad or we are failing because we are vibrating on the wrong equilibrium?

I have listened to, watched and read many many motivational speakers. Most of them will talk about learning to create an energy from within that aligned them perfectly with the universe thereby making it possible for them to succeed in life. The likes of Oprah Winfrey, Dale Carnegie, Lisa Nichols, Norman Vincent of the Power of positive thinking and many many more swear by this. When taking a reality check though, you realise that in some of our countries, the education system is floured, health and sanitation is a mess, economy is bad etc. When we fail due to these reasons, do we blame the system or own the mistake of “vibrating on the wrong equilibrium “?
