I personally know a good amount of people that

don’t have a college degree and make 6 even 7-figure

incomes. My personal opinion is as followed: no you

don’t have to have a college degree in order to be

successful. Personally I think people that think this are

covering up what’s really bothering them. There are so

many people that struggle through life waiting for that boom

time to put them back in the driver seat to what they call

life. For the past three years I have struggled and struggles

hard with this very thing.

It wasn’t until 9 months ago I found something that

dramatically changed my life. Prior to that I struggled with

self-confidence, anxiety issues, drive, ambition, heck life in

general. I met a man by the name of Steve Bowman, which to

this day is still a great mentor and even better friend. He

showed me a business opportunity that I totally loved. For the

past 9 months I’ve worked this opportunity. From that

I’ve learned this; everybody has there own path in life

there own destiny however not everyone chases it. My

experience has shown that people go through life letting other

people influence them. That makes no sense because if you let

that happen you would have created a life based on what others

want.

My point is this life is what you make of it. College is a

fantastic opportunity no doubt. Although upon competition the

fact is you pay 40,000 in some cases over 100,000 dollars for

a piece of paper. Granted you finish college that is when

you’ll realize what you’re made of. You’ll

think back of how hard it was, how much you’ve

struggled, how people said you wont make it. Once you graduate

you’ll then think I can do anything. You’ll then

realize ok I got this if I can do 2 years of heart ache I can

do anything I set my mind to.

In closing I want to say this. All you have to do is believe in

yourself set a goal and go to war with it, trust the process.

Success isn’t a dollar amount it’s a mindset. Just

focus on the end result which is reaching your goal because

there’s no better feeling. After that all those little

things that your parents not supporting all the haters

whatever your problem is will be solved once you reach your

goal. Nothing is easier to prove then hard facts. Just believe

in yourself do what your passionate about and I promise the

money will come. Now are you going to be one to chase your

dreams or someone who lets there dreams fade into

non-existence. This decision is the difference between being

successful or not. At the end of the day just know that the

choice is yours and no one else’s. Now I ask, what kind

of person are you?
