Why people won't look at their own self?

2021 is such a dramatic year for me, it was full of learning and un-learning as well.

Right now, I have many things running in my mind but i wanted to highlight only few which bothered me a lot throughout the year.
When i look back into the society, when i look upon people around me, it feels so happy that they are working hard and they are putting their heart and blood in earning good amount of money, purchasing things and moving towards a secure lifestyle, but at the same time they disappoint me a lot. They forgot a simple thing that the actual sense of life lies in day to day challenges. they put a lot of barricades in the process of self learning in the form of money, priviledge, non-living assets etc to stop those new challenges.
It is not like that i am expecting something that one should behave and live their life in this particular manner, but it is just my sheer disappointment and you should pardon me for this.
i still do not understand why people wont look at their own self, why they wont look at their surroundings, how can they ignore their root problems which is going on in their day to day life?
One question is always running in my mind is that what is the use of education and knowledge if you are not doing something new and productive? what is the use of books movies literature and various forms of art if you are not working on your own self? If you are not working on your own then how can you think about making a better society?
Today, i am writing this because i am a person who value humans and human relationships like how a mother care for his/her child.
See, People make their bed on a regular basis, they work hard to earn bread and butter, they arrange multiple things for their comfort, they regularly took bath, got ready and do three times food. They do all these things for the body but they wont give a single minute to their own mind and soul which is the most important thing that should never be missed. But in this neo-liberal capitalist era people are not realizing that they are turning into a market's by-product. Having purchasing power for the products doesn't make you happy and successful, it is the market/global giants who is injecting this phenomenon. People are not realizing one thing that they are loosing productivity in every sense. This is a new form of Slavery. It is a very serious problem that should be identified at the earliest. We should think about ourselves before someone else hijack our lifestyle, our thought process, in a nutshell our mind, body and soul.
