I have been asked about my background in business many times. The articles in this category will tell a lot about that background. But the short of it is this: I didn’t finish university, and thus I wasn’t (and am not) qualified to enter any business program. I have no diploma. I have no undergraduate degree, even. The short courses I attended were all related to the business I was involved in but nothing but the fundamentals.
But what do I brag about? I am educated in the university of life, literally. I learned while already “in” business, meaning, I learned along the way. I learned from my mistakes. I learned from being cheated. I learned from my failures. From all these, I have the diploma of success.
What else? Despite what I lacked and because of what I went through, I had the rare privilege of retiring at 38, have been able to travel to more than 40 countries, have been able to invest in the future of my family and live more comfortably than I could have imagined during my struggling years. It shows that with hard work, setting goals and the ability to take advantage of timing and luck, even someone who started with nothing can rise and be successful.
Read on… be inspired. If I have been able to do this, so can you!
Just dropping a note to thank you for this fantastіc read!! I certainly enjoyed little bit of it.
