Yet, there are many, many people who *are* the wrong color, sex, or age, 
and are handicapped, accented, ugly, or come from a poor background, and
they seem to be doing just fine.  The difference that I have noticed is
that those who do well are the ones with grit and determination, and those
who don't do well frequently blame others for their failures.
