"I like Zuckerberg". About lie to ourselves

How people justify their idleness:

Long known that often the words "we need to try everything in life" refers to the use of drugs and Amateur porn, and almost never career in the field of quantum physics, climbing or exploring the grammar of the Faroese language. Accordingly, when asked "who are you?" you know, you usually hear back? No, not "some College" and "plan to", alas. First you hear the crackle and the hiss, as when you turn on the old radio, and then the interviewee raises his head and defensively said, "by the way, Mark Zuckerberg diploma no!"

It would seem, and here Zuckerberg? I ask you personally! Here you are, a man in worn jeans and a sweater on a naked body. What education do you have? At the Academy, Nesterova studied for one semester? Hardworking, but my parents ran out of money? Well, he dropped out of Harvard after three years of successful teaching, and you — this sharagu after the first semester — you have a lot in common!

Say, he is also at Palo Alto and Cupertino in rumpled jeans and flip-flops marching? Why he can and you not? Yes, because you're not Zuckerberg, but here is not California. Find at least the courage not to lie to yourself. It is not because but in spite. You and ACE in the hole could not, because there you have no talent, no persistence.

What makes you think that leaving school or College, you will automatically approach the person who has achieved success? And not try to learn Chinese or to solve puzzles at your leisure, much as he does? Or to find partners and friends that are behind you into the fire and into the water, and if necessary, you are ready to invest in any joint ventures? Raise your English to a level that at least in front of the Turkish bartender at the resort was not ashamed?

Where this habit is to copy only what is of no value and no one needs? You and Steve jobs is cute? So that's why you wear all year round a black sweater with collar and took the iPhone latest model in credit! Not everyone is a bitten Apple has a chance to become a brand, you know? Look how many of them lying in the garbage. Why don't you learn to be a professional marketer or programmer? Ah, Yes, it is easier to be limited to purchase turtleneck and iPhone. You did, and so did everything in your power. published
