I think this is interesting as fuck. Growing up my brother definitely reigned supreme among the sibling kingdom, unquestionable. But now he has part of an unfinished vocal major, left school, and is working in a warehouse. Not a dead end, but not where he'd like to be. I don't expect anything from my older sister and my family doesn't either. Just an average kid. Biased about myself, so that's unanswerable. I really expect most out of my little sister. She's young but she's talented in nearly any creative or artistic thing she touches or tries. It's amazing.
You just described my little sister (four kid family, she's the youngest). She's going into theater art / acting, but she's excellent at music and drawing as well. While the rest of us (all guys) are awful at any sort of art. Though, my older bro and I are into programming, which some people say requires creativity.I really expect most out of my little sister.

I posted this because I was interested on what people might use as the "yardstick" (as _refugee_ puts it) to measure success. It's an incredibly subjective thing, so much so that I find it hard to believe that one can put forth a reliable study. One mans success is another mans burden.But now he has part of an unfinished vocal major, left school, and is working in a warehouse. Not a dead end, but not where he'd like to be.
-Yeah, but I bet he has the prettiest voice in the whole warehouse.
