Everyone! Hello! Let me begin by saying that each and every one of you is worth it. Some people say that IQ points mean everything; without a high IQ, you're stupid and worthless. Let me tell you something: smarts aren't everything. Yes, smarts will get you money and a good education, but that is about all that smarts will guarantee you. What really matters is you. You can guarantee your own future; not other people, not your socioeconomic status, and definitely not smarts. What makes a big difference in the long run--peaceful marriage, good family, high-paying job, good education, a happy life--is your attitude. Not just your attitude, which should always be a positive one, but how hard you work. If you decide to stay home all day and get high, you're never going to get anywhere. No, there's nothing wrong with doing what you enjoy, to some extent. But unless you work hard for what you need--what you truly need--in life, you're never going to get that good job or that good spouse or the good family or that happy life. You can be from a poor family living in the ghetto, with no money or education, but still make it through life one-hundred per cent successful. I can probably name about five people from the top of my head that went through the same kind of situation and are, or were, happy and successful. The fact that if you're stuck in the ghetto--or stuck in the poor family, or stuck in a racial repression--is false. It's an illusion. An illusion put up by society and by those arrogant and hateful toward those in poverty.
The only thing that will guarantee your success in life is you.
If you want something in life--be it love, money, or fame--reach out for it and grab it.
