I remember I did not want to go to college and thought it was a rather wasteful exercise. My family had an intervention and I agreed to go. I'm so grateful they did that.
Funny that all of the successful people I've heard who quit high school or college eventually went back to complete their thing. By all means follow your passion, but also realize that one way or the other, you will have to pay your dues. |
I think persistence is superior to education.
