Every Swede should aspire to being normal and average. There's no greater compliment than to be called an ordinary kind of person. 'To be as people usually are' is a fine way to describe yourself and you'll instantly earn others' respect. Successful people are just normal people who have had a spot of luck - but it won't last. Every Swede can tell you about 'Jantelagen' the law of Jante. This states that you shouldn't think that you are anybody just because you are somebody. Somebody who is somebody pretends to be nobody and nobody would really want to be seen as somebody in the eyes of anybody.
Get it?
