If I grew up here then I would say this is a very useful tool to gain an idea of the experiences, people, systems or anything else that have been important one's life and mobility.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17051509160440934807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5800861115237125074.post-56939549988181778902017-05-22T01:19:14.486-04:002017-05-22T01:19:14.486-04:00I definitely would not be where I am today without...I definitely would not be where I am today without the support of my friends and family.

But I have noticed the cultural differences in who success is attributed to here and at home. When someone 'makes it', there tends to be an emphasis on them being self made, whereas at home the attitude is more collectivist.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16823079975008751658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5800861115237125074.post-53328311634590022702017-05-18T23:35:12.976-04:002017-05-18T23:35:12.976-04:00"The majority of factors have been in your fa..."The majority of factors have been in your favor" ...so in my context, I guess I've been living the Zimbabwean dream.

I think the American Dream means something different among our population but the common theme is hard work will get you a long ways.

Many people think that their own hard work is the reason why they are successful. However, it is necessary to recognize the immense support and opportunity that you receive, even if many of the "advantages" do not seem particularly remarkable.
