I have been preaching the truth of how useless the traditional education we receive and are PUSHED HARD to continue after high school is almost 100% totally useless and today I am going to back that up with stats in some of the reading I have been doing as of late.

Ice melts at 33° Celsius. Water boils at 212° Celsius. Nothing special happens at 32 degrees or 211 though. Success works much in the same way.

Sometimes along the journey of success, you and I will go through events, seasons, and circumstances that cause us to question our - competence, ability, legitimacy, talent, and overall potential.

True success comes to those who dare to be different. While it's natural to be influenced by others, embracing our individuality and going against the grain is the key to triumph.

Every day, we are faced with choices that can do one of two things: 1.) Move us forward and help us progress towards our goals, dreams, and ideas. Or, 2.) Cost us more time, take us backwards, and move us further away from the things we want.
