I am NOT an A-class student.
I had 47% in my final year project.
I failed a module in my Masters.
Heck, my highest score during my MSc was 67%. The rest were in the 50s! lol
I never won any award or got any recognition for academic accomplishments.
The most I got was satisfactory! lol
Yet, I completed a PhD at 28.
It’s not so much the PhD itself but the obstacles I had to overcome, hurdles I had to skip over, self-doubt, fear, loneliness, procrastination, heartbreak, depression, you name it...
If I can, you can. I am no genius, I just know how to keep going regardless.
Here is to the hard workers because hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
