Payoff Pitch

After a recent discussion with someone on Twitter, I tried to explain how simple it is to achieve financial sustainability. All I received back after offering this information were excuses... But I cant do that? or How can I get enough money to make a downpayment on a rental property?. It seemed that every answer to how to live unconstrained was rebutted with a perception on why that person couldnt do it. I was confused. I didnt understand how to every solution offered, the recipient countered with some reason why they couldnt do it. Then I realized why... They dont have the mindset for this yet.
