light my path

there are so many different personalities in the world, each with their own unique dreams. i was born into a world that told me if i didn't study and do my best, get straight A's that i wouldn't achieve my dreams and be contented. that excellence is a good job, a good salary and making everyone proud.

but i soon realize that that is not 100% true.

there was a time when i worked a border's and the people i mingled with weren't the one's who excelled in school, they were street smart people who knew what they wanted. most of them only had SPM qualifications but they work hard. they might not have high earning jobs, but they make an honest living. which i think is enough.
today, we were talkin bout how most billionaire's such as Bill Gates, Micheal Dell and Ralph Lauren were college dropouts. these people who i am sure were looked down once upon a time since they were not from Harvard or Cambridge, now earn more than most if us do. if you put someone who was educated, who went to the best schools against one of them, there's a high possibility that the street smart can beat them. they live to survive while we stand so proud behind our great institutions.

my point is, it doesn't matter which elite school u went to, which top university u got ur degree from. at the end of the day, it's your effort, ur work and ur sweat.
