Principles are the same. Some aspire to excellence, and others to mediocrity. Success is a mind set, as is mediocrity, as is the sorrowful journey to failure.
Regardless of the endeavour, some pay heed to their dreams, others do not, others excel at being one of the boys, so to speak, happy as long as they have their beer money. Others simply have different motives for what they do. Whatever the endeavour, your mindset on the matter is a recipe for failure.
