I have been thinking about this question for some time. What defines or what makes people succeed in life. If I think about all my friends whom I grew up with in Roorkee most of us are now relatively successful in one way or another. It often occurs to me is it because we all had at a certain level an upbringing, which was relatively equal in some sense. Lot of us went to the same school. Played same games and watched similar movies of our time. Our parents worked in same office and had different jobs. From being Director of the institute to driver of the director in the institute. How come kids coming from such a diverse background at home end up being equally successful in their adulthood. What is that thing or things, which has made this happen ?
Was it our school ?
Was it the neighborhood we lived in ?
Was it the uniqueness of the time we were growing up ?
Or was it combination of all of these things?
Were we unknowingly part of human experiment of success?
Lets me list all my friends from school and see what they are doing now.
