We live in a world where focus is more valuable than your intelligence.
I don’t give a shit how smart you are, if you don’t work HARD every day then the majority of US will succeed much more than you. Oh, you went to Princeton? Who gives a shit. If you are lazy sack of garbage and go through the motions at work and I’m staying late and working till midnight then I’ll wave to you when your at the bottom. Focus and HARD WORK is and will always be the key to success no matter how intelligent you are. Period.
