Ivy Schools to County Colleges - It Just Doesn't Matter

I don't care how smart you are or how talented your are or what college you went to. When it comes to launching a company that stuff just doesn't matter. What does matter is how smart you BELIEVE you are, how talented you BELIEVE you are, how driven you are, how focused you are and how persistent you are.

I have come to realize we achieve what we believe. It doesn't matter what your background is or your education is, what matters is what you believe you can or can't do. Yes, you background and experience has a great influence on your beliefs. But once you realize you have the right and you have the ability to change your beliefs, you can acheive what you want.

So if you are a County College grad, don't feel that you can't achieve what an Ivy Leaguer does. Just follow you passion, be persistent and truly, truly believe in yourself. Then again if you are an Ivy grad... you too need to be passionate, persistent and truly, truly believe in yourself.

College is over... and we are all on common footing. The ones that believe are much more likely to achieve.
