Be Extraordinary Good at Something Else
Seth Godin’s post about ‘The horrible reality of college admissions’ makes me think. My parents always tell me:
-
Get good grades.
-
Get a stable job.
-
Get a promotion.
-
Get a good husband.
What if… instead of getting all the ‘good’ stuff, I:
-
Quit school.
-
Quit my job.
-
Say goodbye to promotion.
-
Never get married.
What if … instead of getting into Harvard; I go ahead and start my own business; create millions of jobs; save millions of lives and make billions of dollar? Would that be so bad? I know someone who did it. What are you good at?
