It is commonly believed that the lifestyles and conduct are primarily dependent on the surroundings in which one is reared. Even though this perception holds some substance, it is not completely relevant, especially in the concurrent highly globalized world.

Undeniably, the  fundamental traits such as personal and attiring habits; social, familial interaction and beliefs, among others are underpinned by the upbringing one receives while growing up. For  instance, ones  born in Asia, are likely to continue conducting themselves, and closely follow stereotypes they have grown up with, in terms of handling personal, familial and social issues based on their native beliefs and sustain social cohesiveness, wherever they go.  

Moreover, their professional acumen also greatly hinges on the education they receive in their home country. For instance, availability of educational resources and expertise helps carve out their occupational dexterity, and  inclines them to specific occupations. For instance, some ethnicities are artistic, while some are more business-oriented, and still some are scientific   

However, some are vested with exceptional qualities,and demonstrate adaptiveness, and tend to integrate new learning into their persona, regardless of their socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, especially when it comes to engaging in professional and sometimes social realms, while maintaining their distinct identity. Mr. Amritpal Singh, owner of a burgeoning hotel chain in the USA, was an aeronautics engineer in India, but after migrating to the USA, he successfully comprehended the new surroundings, and ways of life, and established his venture that served American natives in the way endemic to that region, helping him fetch rich yields, but he still follows his his Indian  ways of life at personal level.  

In hindsight, success majorly hinges on internal and external experiences and seasoning, and those who can adapt to the prevalent circumstances can triumph, regardless of their upbringing and reach the pinnacle.
