i don't fully agree with that statement and then on the other end i feel that your will and determination can get you out of certain environments

Some ppl cannot overcome their environment because it sometimes is what u are and all u have, yes i agree to some degree but i know many that can try to the best of their ability but no outcome

I think that it's true. If people take the right attitude about what they want to accomplish and what they need to do to get there then they can at least be semi-successful at reaching their goal. At least they stepped out of the box and tried, which, sadly, is more than you can say for others.
