But if you've been to LA, there are about a million good looking people. Being good looking doesn't explain people who aren't traditionally good looking like Jack Black, or people who fit the average height of a leading man like Al Pacino who's 5'6". You're right about success. Success is defined differently by different people. Sometimes it's money. Sometimes it's being happy. Sometimes it's raising a healthy child. And you're right. There are no guarantees in life, except death. Even taxes are guaranteed to be paid if, for example, you're homeless. I appreciate your response and grammar lesson. Continued learning is always a good choice in life.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('40','Jimmy Ng'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('40','Jimmy Ng','Brad Pitt is good looking.

You’re right about success. Success is defined differently by different people. Sometimes it’s money. Sometimes it’s being happy. Sometimes it’s raising a healthy child.

And you’re right. There are no guarantees in life, except death. Even taxes are guaranteed to be paid if, for example, you’re homeless.

People succeed not just because of perseverance, but because other people like what they have to offer. And that's a matter of pure luck. Brad Pitt has good genes that make him attractive. He's lucky. And that study doesn't mean a thing even if it is true. Earning more money doesn't equal success. Rich people can be just as miserable as anyone else. Besides, some people, such as me, have multiple interests. Pursuing a single career path isn't for me. There's no universal definition of success, we each define it for ourselves. Yes, we should all try to do what we love. But doing what you love doesn't guarantee that others will love it too and want to pay you for it. Loving to act doesn't make you a good actor. And btw, "everyday" is an adjective. Your copy should read, "... go in every day and love working." Pet peeve.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('39','Anonymous'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('39','Anonymous','I think one of the main reasons Brad Pitt became such a popular success is because of his looks.
