It's hard to answer a question without your definition of success.
The USA has a much different idea of what "success" means given the consumerism and materialism.
While you are explaining principles of "successful people", many people follow these principles in their daily lives and aren't "successful" by definition, but are "successful" by their own definition.
- derbOac 4y agoThis is vastly underrated. In places like HN, I think this is understood in terms of personal goals and accomplishments, sources of well being in life, but it applies to examples from the public sphere as well. It's become obvious that what one person values is really different from what another does when looking at things like voting for public representatives, for example, and certain kinds of success clearly didn't save some people from misery.
