I'm Indian and the first thing i did was look at that bar chart about people's attitudes towards 'fate'.

No surprise to me, India ranks highest on the fatalism curve - 80% of us believe we are helpless to choose our path to success.

...which is fine. But when i see kids here, from the next generation as well, who somehow have this attitude, it breaks my heart.

For a start, i'd advocate teaching Critical thinking skills in our schools.
