It doesnt matter how you started. the more intelligent you are the better you will succeed. There are seven intelligences–I cant name them all but there is–logically like math and physics (Einstien)–Linguistically or something like that( Rapper and poets), physically (sport athletes)

There has been a study on millionaires. I remember the study but not the source. Anyways, people were followed for 20 or so years of there life. They then studied the self made millionaires—they found that these people were millionaires because they absolutley loved what they did. It was like they were addicted to it. Ex. NBA players are addicted to basketball, Einstein addicted to physics, and so on. So its really about finding something that you really want, but you have to love it too—If you love it and want it, its like you automatically got the self determination and discipline to get there. But you got to figure out what you love and want first–which actually brings me to the other study conducted by someone at Harvard.

This harvard study was measuring success. Exactly what you are looking for. Anyways, the doctor concluded that the most successful people are the people who can see the farthest into the future. The least successful person only looks into the next ten minutes of their future or the next shot or cigarrete. The most successful person looks 10 to 20 to 30 to 40 years into the future and makes every action they take towards where they want to be in that many years. I wish I remembered the names, but I hoped it helped.

There are a host of them.

Almost all succesful men and women started out hard.

Abraham Lincoln

Carl Brasheer- The first black master diver in the US marines

Bishop Ajayi Crowther- Nigerian Bishop who translated the Bible to yoruba. He was sold as a slave as a child

and a host of others.

If u’re having it tough in life dont loose your focus you may become someone great in future.

Good luck!
