Formula for success Practicef by Most Asians (with few exceptions)
- strong Family values, follow parent advice, strong commitment
- Focus on education, knowledge and skills (to help break all barriers, rather than play political cards to break barriers)
- Avoid pop-culture, party and drug habits
- strong study and work ethics
- Taking Responsibility and engage in self-improvement - not blame game or politics
- Support system at family and community level - helping eeach other
One to add to your list: I have heard of Asian immigrants living on 20% of their (modest) income, saving 80%.
