Are we emphasizing too much on success?

Just something I wanted to share with you all. Might as well while I'm at it.......

I was wondering what happened to all the advice telling us to be a kind, considerate and law-abiding citizens? It seems that nowadays we're being told of the opposite:-

"This is a dog-eat-dog world. Be kiasu*. Be at the top of the competition. Be aggressive. Have no mercy. Those are the rules of success."

Should we all be surprised that many 'successful' people seems to be the most difficult people we want to avoid at all times?

What do you think? Feel free to agree or disagree and share your ideas on the comments section.

Until then.................

*Basically meaning fear of losing out. Usually a local Chinese slang in Singapore and Malaysia
