Sometimes I kept to myself thinking, others blame circumstances, their own fates, or even luck when they meet successful people around them. I was guilty of that too. Whenever I hear news on young achievers, I always took notice of their background, especially their parents’ occupation. And most of the time, their parents turned out to be managers, doctors or businessmen. That’s when I muttered to myself that sometimes a person’s success is not solely attributed to the individual, but to something he has over others. He might have a successful business because his father is filthy rich who provided him the capital to start with. Or rather, she speaks and writes good English because she was born in an English-speaking family since young. However, true all these views might hold, having such thoughts does not make us any better, or help us to take control our lives. After all, I finally realized it’s all up to one’s determination to carve out our career and to take charge of our lives the way we want it to be. While finding our true strengths, that’s when we need to make full use of it to win the ‘race of life’ which I called it.
