The most striking is that the wheel one attributes success to efforts to draw attention to oneself, whereas the other two promote taking initiative, especially as concerns time.

So...Oh good, Lammy is getting a dose of philosophy. Soon she'll realize that Professor Snewgflo isn't such a bad guy after all.<br />I have a book that discusses common events in both Islam and Buddhism.
