    Bro,- Pacman is "bright" in the sense that he recognized his talent and what it could do for him with perseverance and dedication and never-give-up attitude. He also got hold of that elusive big break in his life.

    Pacman is bright, lucky and a hard worker.

    you are right, he saw his talent and maximized on it.
    but no matter how talented you are, but have not worked hard in developing your talent, it will go to waste.
    and because he developed his talents due to hard work, he was noticed.....he got lucky to be given the right breaks...

    I like that phrase bro - carved destiny. Unfortunately, too many people are stuck in the prayer stage, thinking that their big break will be served at their doorstep.

    Others are so privileged that they don't need to do much carving anymore, but for most of us, the effort to carve is what separates those who succeed and those who don't.

    Now, time to get back to carving... #hustle

    The big break is always there i guess. The trouble is recognizing and grasping it. Those who do are the outliers. So imho it is not a simple as getting a headstart in life. It is a major factor, yes, but is just one of the myriad out there. I had classmates who went on to have well paying jobs and others who started minimum wage - intellect and equal opportunity nonwithstanding. Same ccourse, same class, same school, same year.

    I think it's relative. While some equate success to fame and money, that is not always the case.

    Hahaha. From the context, it would be yung popularly accepted definition of success. Now if we add calling, vocation, fulilfillment, achievement, etc to the mix, then it becomes not only complicated but incredibly broad a topic. :D

    Iba iba definition ng tao sa success. Case in point isang pinoy sa canada. pinagmamalaki na president daw ng malaking company isang anak nya, yun isa naman nya anak accountant yata na may sariling firm. Itong si puti proud na proud sa mga anak nyang fire fighter at paramedic (tama ba yung sa ambulance daw rescuing people?). Si pinoy iba reaction na parang loser si puti dahil sa profession na pinili ng mga anak nya.
    Btw si puti ay nasa resort ni pinoy nagbabakasyon.

    Sucess and financial comfort are two vastly different things. Not everyone wants to become an ultra-rich businessman or CEO. However, I think that everyone wishes to be at a financial level that's comfortable enough to cover their basic needs. Anything above that is personal preference.

    On ninjababez' example, a firefighter in a first world country won't have to worry about being able to feed his family, because even a fireman's salary is enough for a fairly comfortable life. That's what I noticed about first world countries - their lives are so easy, their professions all pay well (some more than others, but most will allow you to have a decent standard of living). Since their past that point where they have to worry about their basic needs, they can focus more on things they're passionate about, including humanitarian action.

    Here, a fireman will not be able to send his kids to good schools, and possibly not even be able to buy their own house in a decent community. The huge income inequality further exacerbates the predicament of materialism.

    Success is relative. The more success, the more relatives! :D

    An old joke...


    Four friends, who hadn't seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a party. One of the men left to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids. The first guy said, "My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel. He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the president of the company. He became so wealthy, he gave his best friend a Mercedes for his birthday." The second guy said, "Wow, that's terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school & became a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company & he now owns the majority of its assets. He's so wealthy he gave his best friend a Lear jet for his birthday." The third man said: "Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer. Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire. He became so wealthy, he gave his best friend a 30,000 square foot mansion for his birthday." The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: "What are all the congratulations for?" One of the three said: "We were talking about how successful our sons are. What about your son?" The fourth man replied: "I just found out my son is gay & he makes his living dancing at a gay bar.? The three friends said: "What a shame....What a scandal....what a terrible disappointment." The fourth man replied: "What do you mean? He?s doing very well. His birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a Mercedes, a Lear jet & a mansion from his three boyfriends."

    I think the AC of my Altis is hopeless. This is the third time I brought it to the casa and it was there for 3 weeks! Nothing changed. Hilaw pa rin
