Is Success Directly Dependent On Upbringing?

1. Background of study
First off, success must be clearly outlined. Success is all about perception and happiness. It is a matter of personal opinion. Some people may only feel successful when they are the leader of a large company and making a very high wage, while someone else may feel successful as a kindergarten teacher. Success also must be compared with past and present. Along with wages and technology, personal goals and self esteems have also changed. So, are these ideas and opinions dependent on upbringing? Are children who are born into wealthy families forced to believe that money is the only key to success?
2. Importance
It is important to understand how the lives of parents affect their children. Are children more likely to be happy as adults if their parents were happy with their success?
3. Purpose of study
It is also important to prove what roles parents play in children's adult lives. Where do we draw the line?
4. Organization
I plan to look up the childhoods of many people that are viewed to be successful in society. I will researched popular people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama and see how their upbringings affected them. I also plan to define success the best I can. It does depend on the person, so I will also research ordinary people and their ideas of success.
