If you can't achieve things mostly on your own then you don't "deserve" them anyway

No but yes, no to other people but yes to me, like if someone used the help of another person in doing something i find that he still "deserves" it. But me? Nah if i can't do it on my own then i don't deserve it nor do i deserve any praise on doing it. But if you think about it, even when i'm doing it on my own, im still not doing it on my own. I mean if it's research i'm using google right? If i am inventing something (lol) then i am building over what other people already discovered, if i am solving a math problem then i'll have to actually listen to a lecture on what lesson this is and how to solve it. So there's nobody that can really do something entirely on their own, but i understand what you meant by "on your own" in this post, i just wanted to make a point.
