Some people believe that a person’s
success
 in adult
life
 is a result of upbringing they received. I do not quite agree with
this
 view. In my opinion, the
success
 of a person is very much a result of their hard work and perseverance. Upbringing is certainly important, but just because a child is brought up well, there is no guarantee that they will be successful in their adult
life
.
Although
 parents are the ultimate teachers and guides of a child, many people grow up either without their parents or against their parents’ principles. Quite a few people learn to live
life
 or make it big in
life
 without family support or help. There have been many
such
success
 stories.
For example
, many wealthy businessmen on the Wall Street were orphans; yet they earned
success
 from scratch. Talent, skills and hard work coupled with experience are important factors in any successful individual’s
life
. People grow from their experiences or situations

Their

For example

 tremendously. To conclude, no matter whether an individual is born with a silver spoon in their mouth or to wealthy parents, ultimately it is their perseverance and hard work that
