The curse of straight a’s

Spread the love

Having it so easy to get straight a’s during all my student life made me cruise for all those years in school. It also made me feel that everything would be as easy on the forthcoming years.

It made me feel too comfortable to realize that other challenges were out there. Challenges like creating a business and a living that would be entirely up to me.

Can’t be too hard on myself because every single advise and compliment I got back then reinforced the idea that being great at school would lead me to a great job and a great life. Of course that wasn’t the case.

I realize the harsh truth later in life. The bad news is that you never get back all those “wasted” years. The good news is that those years are only lost if you learn nothing. And also, that is never too late to learn new tricks.

It has arrived a time to unlearn all that shallow, misleading data. I feel I am doing it really good.
