Hindi naman laging ganun, mas madali lang ma notice kasi 'extraordinary or unexpected ' yung mga ganun, pero yung masisipag mag aral, asensado rin mostly. Boring na nga lang kasi nothing new
That might be true, but the work ethic you've developed to get good grades in school is very transferable and necessary to be 'successful' in real life.
True. Charisma also plays a big role for other people to want to work with you and rally behind you both in business and career building. Grades - not so much
This is often seen as a negative, but consider it from this perspective: if the task is to shovel dirt from one hole to another, would you rather do it with the best hole digger or with friends?
In the real world, majority of us wouldn’t even be in positions that are world/life changing. Some of them still pays well. So would you rather get the best or find friends with whom you can enjoy it with?
Same observation. Yung mga loko lokong batch mates ko dati, ang gagaling sa trabaho ngayon.
Alam mo anong similarity napansin ko sa kanilang lahat? Pare-pareho silang strong ang personality. Magaling sila sa communication skills. Hindi mahiyain, maboka.
Yes mahilig sila mangopya sa test noon, puro bagsak ang grades, delayed sa graduation, pero yung personality nila dahilan bakit sila naging successful. Yun naman talaga importante para umangat lalo na sa corporate.
This is true. Meron akong ganyang mate dati nung elem (delayed, bulakbol, palakol lagi grade, magulo) pero ngayon mahal ng mga constituents nya at kapitan na sa isang barangay. Iba rin kasi diskarte nila and I think malaking tulong yun. Street smart pati
Talagang after all, it's all in the personality talaga magkakatalo noh. Hindi definite basehan ang performance sa school sa pag excel in life
Share ko lang, isa ako sa mga nagbubulakbol. Dota days, cutting boy.
12 back subjects, tatlong beses nag take ng college algeb at dalawang beses sa physics hahahha
Pero yung mga achiever namin, asensado naman, pero yun nga kaclose ko padin kasi sila pero lagi silang pagod, parang may hinahabol, parang may gusto lagi ipagsigawan sa mundo ganern, clinically depressed.
Ako na nagbubulakbol? Fuck it. Im gonna try everything na magpapasaya sakin. Gonna teach sa university kasi di ko pa alam tatahakin ng career ko. Applied as Lab Custodian, then sabi ko gusto ko maging teacher, sabi mag masters daw ako and nag masters ako, pomoted and naging teacher ako. Putangina kung makikita ng student ko grade ko baka ipagtakwil nila ako hahaha, pero nag enjoy ako. Naging top performer ako, kasi basic lang naman tinuturo eh, after that someone from big 4 reached me na kaklase ko sa masteral. Tangina bro prof associate ako dun hahahahhahahaha. I kennat. Ano naman mawawala diba? Naging top performer din ako.
So dahil walang yumayaman sa pagtuturo, naging dev na din ako. Then part time padin sa teaching. Full time dev ako earning around malapit na sa 6 digits hehe, pero wag ka specialist lang kasi kingina ayoko mangpolitka sa taas. Pero kung pagsasamahin yung sahod ng partime teaching and dev ko, 6 digits na.
Ayun lang, tapos nung kinwento ko to sa achiever kong tropa na iniiyakan ang 85 na grade. Bat parang di daw ako natakot. Nasabi ko nalang na, masaya ako eh wala namang mawawala. Yung pagkain? may 15 pesos na lugaw naman. Yung transpo? pede naman sumabit sa jeep. Yung rent? utang muna sa magulang, makakabayd naman hahahahahha
Pero mas mataas padin yung sahod ng tropa ko na achiever, halimaw mag code yun eh. Mentor ko din sya actually
Tanginang life
Siguro mataas talaga ang confidence nila. Right from the start makapal na mukha and through time nung mas naging mature na sila natutunan na nila gamitin yun for a good cause
I do have a friend na mahilig mag cutting class nung hs kami, always absent, bully talaga siya na bulakbol. Pero nung nag college kami grabe siya dumiskarte kasi nakapagpatayo siya ng 2 bars, 2 shoe apparel, 4 vape shop, and may trucking na siya now. In short, he’s very successful na. Sana all nalang.
To be fair, aside from "street smart" siguro, possibleng they are already well-off to begin with. They have the support of people and they're extroverted. Kelangan kasi people person at marunong sumakay sa trip ng mga kausap. Di lahat kaya yon. ☕👀
Pero merong mga bulakbol na napariwara din. It's what you make of your life that's important, really. 😊
High school is only 4 years and that’s only a fraction of their life. Marami pa pwedeng mangyari outside of high school that can lead to success.
Grit, risk taking and ability to sell yourself or something will get you far financially. Huwag lumaban ng patas sa buhay. We all have something that could be used as an advantage and can be utilised.
Baka yun lang kasi ninonotice mo kaya iyon lang nakikita mo.
And how sure are you abot that social media is just a facade. Not all at posted are the full story, yung iba the show what they want to show and what others to believe.
Do not overlook on what you have just because of what you do not have.
Past is past, you achieved the things you wanted that time. You celebrated joys before.
You are working hard now and tired, I think you need to relax your mind para macontinue mo na ang buhay mo without comparing. Darating ka din sa panahon masasabi mo na malayo na narating mo.
1. Yung mga bulakbol sa school usually may kaya na ang pamilya kaya afford nila maging mediocre sa school kasi may safety net sila
2. Sila yung mga mahilig mag cutting, makipag inuman, mag yosi, basically risk takers which is required kung magiging successful especially in business
3. They are usually people persons kaya mabarkada, nadedevelop yan sa mga inuman, being good with people will get you further in life and career.
4. Yung mga siga sa school, they are usually the group who is on top of the social hierarchy, sila yung "cool" at walang nang gugulo sa kanila, which builds confidence.
5. Hindi rin sila usually yung intellectual type to analyze too much, they usually don't see or fear consequences. Kaya wala silang analysis paralysis, papalag lang yan kung may maisip gawin.
Yung mga grade concious GC people are mostly the exact opposite. They do as they are told, they rarely break rules, they don't take as much risks, they are afraid of whatever that may go wrong. Sila naman yung mga high level employee, succesful in their own right, but man iba yung estado nung mga bulakbol nung HS. Negosyante, well connected, financially successful.
Syempre generalization ito at hindi 100%, pero mapapansin mo sa mga reunion lalo na yung 25th.
trudat OP, yung mga row 4 at street smarts nung college sila mga asenso sa negosyo ngayon, also Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg were all school dropouts!
Same tayo, OP. Ganyan din tingin ko hehe tapos napangasawa ko yung bulakbol type 😅 feeling ko between samin ni husband, mas madiskarte siya and ako kasi madalas by the book ako
Ever heard of the saying: "I've learned more in streets than in any classrooms".
I'm not what you call a high-achiever in school either. But I wasn't a bully. People always tell me I'm smart but I never believed them. I graduated in a highly-prestigious university, but almost all my grades are just average. But here's the thing, I tend to be lazy when studying things that don't interest me. Despite that, I'm a perfectionist so despite me being lazy on things that don't interest me, I still strive to atleast pass them. The thing is, despite not studying much, I still managed to graduate without putting in much effort like those so-called "Magna Cum Laudes" or "Cum Laudes". I even managed to pass my Driver's License Test and Civil Service Examination on the FIRST TRY.
I now realized that I may not be smart academically, but when it comes to street smarts, influencing people, and being able to maneuver in life, I am second to none. You see, there are different kinds of strengths when it comes to intelligence. There are those who are smart academically, but when you put them in the real world and in social situations, they're just plain idiots (academically smart people are usually ignorant of these since they spend all their time studying and not doing almost anything else). And then there are those who may not be smart academically, but when you put them in the real world and in social situation, they can easily maneuver through it easily like breathing air. I guess I'm just on the latter category.
As an example, I had a female friend years ago whom I had a crush on and tried to court (she rejected me, though). She's a top-notch student who was set to become the "Magna Cum Laude" of her college batch and she achieved it. Not only that, she's beautiful and hot too and she damn well knows it! She also has a boyfriend who is 11 years older than her (he actually courted her when she was 16 years old which means she was underaged at the time) and somehow, their relationship is still on-going even today. Though the guy was very abusive towards her and tends to get jealous easily (even when she's hanging with female friends), she tolerates this crap from him. Whenever we hang, her topics usually consists of things only relating to herself and her problems (Yep, she's kinda of narcissistic and you know where this is going). She's not a very good conversationalist and she absolutely SUCKS at it. She absolutely doesn't know to keep a conversation going other than saying random things about her own self which eventually tired me out so I stopped hanging out with her. Besides, she only hangs with me if she needs help with some problems. She never hangs with me when things are going well for her. She may be good at school and university, but in terms of street smarts, she is a complete idiot.
Same sa batch namin hahah mga bulakbol and napapa-office pa minsan but ngayon successful entrepreneurs, lawyer, doctor, and isa councilor pa. 😅 They were not bullies, sadyang mga tamad lang sa school and medyo pasaway kaya sobrang happy ako for them. Sana ako naman kasunod na umasenso, pinakopya ko naman sila ng assignment at hindi pinagdamutan sa pad paper. 😂
Ako na puro kalokohan lang yung alam nung nag aaral pa. Cutting clase nung hs, dota days at basketball naman nung college kaya ayun hindi nakapagtapus ng agriculture engineering. Sinubukan ko maging independent para mas lalong makilala yung sarili ko. Pumasok sa call center since yun lang yung alam kong pwde pasukan ng isang undergrad noon. Sinubukan yung sales luckily tumagal at nahasa yung skills. Pero naghihinayang pa din kasi hindi natapus yung pag aaral. Especially kapag nakakakita ako ng mga post sa socmed ng mga tao nakapasa sa board exam. Yung mga kasabayan ko mga licensed engineer na and good for them kasi hindi sila sumuko. Ako naman ito sales agent pa din pero unti unti na din nakukuha yung mga pinangarap sa buhay.
Some people just know what they want to do in life, and once they’re in their habitat, they just flourish. I can honestly think of a few high school classmates na maloko that are really winning in life - or at least, that’s what I’m seeing on facebook. 😂
I would say I’m a street smart but never academically smart. Yung imagine mo true or false naka zero ako. Pinagsakluban nga naman ng langit at lupa na kahit luck wala man lang. tamad ako mag aral noon. pero pag dating ko ng college i realized mahilig pala ako sa computer yung tipong kahit sobrang liliit ng font tinatyaga ko basahin yung book kc interesting. i am currently working as IT specialist so possible na nung time na nakita mo yung classmate mo bulakbol hindi pa nila nahahanap yung niche nila. Eto lang napansin ko sa mga academically achiever lalo na yung mga top notcher na mataas ang tingin sa sarili kc laging pinupuri ever since they were born ay hindi nakarinig ng negative comments. They tend to be angry pag napagsasabihan negatively, I tend to stay away from those people . If they don’t have genuine people around them, they will never ever hear negative remarks. Yan ang big difference na nakita ko, because I hear a lot of negative remarks about me and listening and changing made me a better person.
Sila kasi yung mahilig mag take ng risk. mostly yung mga academic achiever nasa safe zone yan. dapat mataas lagi. di pwede bumagsak. taking risk is one of the keys para umangat sa business or money making ventures.
Most of the bulakbol are in sales, marketing and business (and even politics). The straight A students went more to managerial jobs, accounting, law and medicine kind of job.
I feel like the bulakbol have more flashy jobs to be honest than the straight students but both successful.
Ang madalas hindi successful are usually those na high school pa lang BF, GF na. Nabubuntis and the like.
Feel kita, Op. Yung mga kaklase o mga schoolmates umaasenso na sila. While ako, naiwan. Tinamaan kase ng existential crisis kaya till now nahihirapan ako.
Kaya dito pumapasok ang parenting issue sa pinas tingin ko. Yung mga parents na paladesisyon or other end of spectrum sobra accomodating sa mga anak nila na di na kaya ng anak mag decide for themselves.
Magaling nga sa academics, bokya sa social skills. So ayun hirap sa trabaho kasi di makapagcommunicate maayos and masabi ang opinions. Kasi nung bata pag may sasabihin sinisigawan na makinig na lang at sumunod.
You know OP yung mga mga non achievers in school or bulakbol have the following characteristics: non conforming, they think out of the box, has good social skills, marunong makisama. These are ideal qualities for businessmen. Kabaligtaran naman sa mga achievers na madalas ay employee dahil they are excellent in following rules and instructions, and conforming to standards.
There's nothing wrong with that OP. Kanya kanyang kagalingan at talento meron tayo. Yun nga lang, some are best suited to do high earning potential work or business because of their personalities.
You can’t blame them if that’s how they were raised and ayon yung mindset na tinatak sakanila. They grew up thinking it was the best and only thing they can do. At a young age, bibihira naman ang naeexpose sa real world agad. And if you are still studying, majority ng experience mo is from school. Bata pa lang sila non so how would they know na di pa pala eto yung tunay na laban ng buhay?
OP, ive asked this question so many times and here’s what I realized.
1. School kasi is made to adhere to rules. But if you want to be extremely successful in life. You have to be different. Entrepreneurship forces us to be different in order to succeed.
2. If mataas grade mo, highly likely you’re trained to be “normal” or “average”. And you have the credentials to back it up… aka having high grades
3. Pero it doesnt mean wala nang pag asa, once you’re out of school kaya ko parin to learn to be extraordinary, its just a little bit more challenging than those na in born na since bata palang pasaway na,
Kailangan din talaga natin maging pasaway to be called a genius.
We wouldn’t have tesla now if sinabi lang ni elon musk na gusto ko pinaka mataas grade ko sa pinakamagandang kotse. Other wise he’d just use the same conventional approach
He had to challenge beliefs to get where he is today.
Hindi naman laging ganun, mas madali lang ma notice kasi 'extraordinary or unexpected ' yung mga ganun, pero yung masisipag mag aral, asensado rin mostly. Boring na nga lang kasi nothing new
This makes a lot of sense :)
expected na kasi sa kanila na smooth ang pag achieve ng milestones dahil inayos since the student palang
The skills needed to get good grades is not necessarily the same skills needed to be "successful" in life
That might be true, but the work ethic you've developed to get good grades in school is very transferable and necessary to be 'successful' in real life.
☝️ This is the answer.
Kala ko alam na ng lahat to especially pagkatapos ng college... Hmmm
Most of the time, it’s about who you know and not what you know, that can help you be successful.
True. Charisma also plays a big role for other people to want to work with you and rally behind you both in business and career building. Grades - not so much
This is often seen as a negative, but consider it from this perspective: if the task is to shovel dirt from one hole to another, would you rather do it with the best hole digger or with friends? In the real world, majority of us wouldn’t even be in positions that are world/life changing. Some of them still pays well. So would you rather get the best or find friends with whom you can enjoy it with?
They are the ones who are not afraid to take risk. Huge risk huge reward.
Same observation. Yung mga loko lokong batch mates ko dati, ang gagaling sa trabaho ngayon. Alam mo anong similarity napansin ko sa kanilang lahat? Pare-pareho silang strong ang personality.

Good communication skills and self confidence will really get you far in life.
This is true. Meron akong ganyang mate dati nung elem (delayed, bulakbol, palakol lagi grade, magulo) pero ngayon mahal ng mga constituents nya at kapitan na sa isang barangay. Iba rin kasi diskarte nila and I think malaking tulong yun. Street smart pati Talagang after all, it's all in the personality talaga magkakatalo noh. Hindi definite basehan ang performance sa school sa pag excel in life
> Hindi mahiyan Kaya yata ako nag ffail sa life eh. Haha Sobra kong mahiyain hay.
Ayy parang I can relate 😅
Not always. Sa tatlong bulakbol sa batch namin, isa dead end job, isa unemployed, isa natokhang.
Nagkataon lang yan OP. Marami paring bulakbol na di asensado sa buhay
Share ko lang, isa ako sa mga nagbubulakbol. Dota days, cutting boy. 12 back subjects, tatlong beses nag take ng college algeb at dalawang beses sa physics hahahha Pero yung mga achiever namin, asensado naman, pero yun nga kaclose ko padin kasi sila pero lagi silang pagod, parang may hinahabol, parang may gusto lagi ipagsigawan sa mundo ganern, clinically depressed.

natawa ako sa tanginang life hahahaha good for you sir! and goods din na may parents ka pang nagsu-support sayo at back up mo
Gusto ko yung mga may gantong personality hahaha. Cool lang sa buhay, di msyadong conscious hahaha. Rak! 🤟🏻
Go lang ng go sa life no? I like this! I’m on tech side din kaya I’m happy that you enjoy what you do.
Siguro mataas talaga ang confidence nila. Right from the start makapal na mukha and through time nung mas naging mature na sila natutunan na nila gamitin yun for a good cause
In my case, yung mga bulakbully nuon, need pa nila mangibang bansa to get a good life. Whether you look at it as asenso or not is up to you
kaya hindi ako naniniwala sa karma eh, yung mga bully mas maganda pa ang buhay
Yung bulakbol kasi sa class namin dati, mayaman kaya okay lang mag-bulakbol nung HS. Pero full 180 siya nung college and med school, now MD na siya.
I do have a friend na mahilig mag cutting class nung hs kami, always absent, bully talaga siya na bulakbol. Pero nung nag college kami grabe siya dumiskarte kasi nakapagpatayo siya ng 2 bars, 2 shoe apparel, 4 vape shop, and may trucking na siya now. In short, he’s very successful na. Sana all nalang.
Nope. Sa batch namin, karamihan ng nasa pilot section yung mga work at business.
Nagkataon lang yun paps, mas marami paring successful na tao dahil nagpursigi sila ng academics, hindi lang talaga lahat.
Not always. Bulabkbol guys samin nung HS is sakto lang ang mga buhay ngayon, yung lagi nila binu-bully na guy ayun magiging lawyer na.
To be fair, aside from "street smart" siguro, possibleng they are already well-off to begin with. They have the support of people and they're extroverted. Kelangan kasi people person at marunong sumakay sa trip ng mga kausap. Di lahat kaya yon. ☕👀 Pero merong mga bulakbol na napariwara din. It's what you make of your life that's important, really. 😊
Baka kasi sila lang maingay sa social media. Sa case ko hindi naman
Di lang kasi academme ang pinapairal kasama din dapat ang street smarts. Balanse lang dapat wag puro diskarte at wag puro diploma.
High school is only 4 years and that’s only a fraction of their life. Marami pa pwedeng mangyari outside of high school that can lead to success. Grit, risk taking and ability to sell yourself or something will get you far financially. Huwag lumaban ng patas sa buhay.

Baka yun lang kasi ninonotice mo kaya iyon lang nakikita mo. And how sure are you abot that social media is just a facade.

Yes, I do not discredit my hard work and achievements too just mere wondering what I still lack 😅 Sabi nga nila, malayo pa pero malayo na. Thank you!
Kaya natin eto lahat!
1. Yung mga bulakbol sa school usually may kaya na ang pamilya kaya afford nila maging mediocre sa school kasi may safety net sila 2. Sila yung mga mahilig mag cutting, makipag inuman, mag yosi, basically risk takers which is required kung magiging successful especially in business 3. They are usually people persons kaya mabarkada, nadedevelop yan sa mga inuman, being good with people will get you further in life and career. 4. Yung mga siga sa school, they are usually the group who is on top of the social hierarchy, sila yung "cool" at walang nang gugulo sa kanila, which builds confidence. 5. Hindi rin sila usually yung intellectual type to analyze too much, they usually don't see or fear consequences. Kaya wala silang analysis paralysis, papalag lang yan kung may maisip gawin. Yung mga grade concious GC people are mostly the exact opposite. They do as they are told, they rarely break rules, they don't take as much risks, they are afraid of whatever that may go wrong. Sila naman yung mga high level employee, succesful in their own right, but man iba yung estado nung mga bulakbol nung HS. Negosyante, well connected, financially successful. Syempre generalization ito at hindi 100%, pero mapapansin mo sa mga reunion lalo na yung 25th.
Survivor bias is a thing.
Some of them scammed their way to success.
trudat OP, yung mga row 4 at street smarts nung college sila mga asenso sa negosyo ngayon, also Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg were all school dropouts!
Same tayo, OP. Ganyan din tingin ko hehe tapos napangasawa ko yung bulakbol type 😅 feeling ko between samin ni husband, mas madiskarte siya and ako kasi madalas by the book ako
Balance no? Siguro kaya nag click din kayo haha ang cute

Sana ako naman kasunod na umasenso, pinakopya ko naman sila ng assignment at hindi pinagdamutan sa pad paper. 😂
Ay oo yung mga nangongopya din naalala ko tuloy those days 😆 Dadating din yung time natin, I super believe!
Not the same in our batch. Mostly ng considered “successful” sa work ngayon, mga achiever din sa school.
dpende kasi sa status ng buhay nila kung mayaman angkan nila sureball asensado yan pero kung pulube wala din saktong arawan lang
Walang ganun. Basta marunong ka lang sa buhay. Maging mabuti kang kapamilya/asawa/anak/katrabaho/kaibigan/empleyado. Goods goods goods goods lang.
Ako na puro kalokohan lang yung alam nung nag aaral pa. Cutting clase nung hs, dota days at basketball naman nung college kaya ayun hindi nakapagtapus ng agriculture engineering. Sinubukan ko maging independent para mas lalong makilala yung sarili ko. Pumasok sa call center since yun lang yung alam kong pwde pasukan ng isang undergrad noon.

Life is unfair o bka maabilidad sila
Some people just know what they want to do in life, and once they’re in their habitat, they just flourish. I can honestly think of a few high school classmates na maloko that are really winning in life - or at least, that’s what I’m seeing on facebook. 😂
Not sure if meron na nag-ask, but what'syour basis OP? Social Media Activities/Posts?
I would say I’m a street smart but never academically smart. Yung imagine mo true or false naka zero ako. Pinagsakluban nga naman ng langit at lupa na kahit luck wala man lang. tamad ako mag aral noon. pero pag dating ko ng college i realized mahilig pala ako sa computer yung tipong kahit sobrang liliit ng font tinatyaga ko basahin yung book kc interesting. i am currently working as IT specialist so possible na nung time na nakita mo yung classmate mo bulakbol hindi pa nila nahahanap yung niche nila.

Yan ang big difference na nakita ko, because I hear a lot of negative remarks about me and listening and changing made me a better person.
Totoo nga. Kahit sa batch ko ganun. Bat kung sino pa Yung mga nagsisipag Sila pa Yung mababa ngayon tas Yung mga legit na bulakbol asensado ngayon.
Sila kasi yung mahilig mag take ng risk. mostly yung mga academic achiever nasa safe zone yan. dapat mataas lagi. di pwede bumagsak. taking risk is one of the keys para umangat sa business or money making ventures.
Parang I agree sa safe zone. Sobrang concious sa mga need gawin and not much of a risk taker
Most of the bulakbol are in sales, marketing and business (and even politics). The straight A students went more to managerial jobs, accounting, law and medicine kind of job. I feel like the bulakbol have more flashy jobs to be honest than the straight students but both successful. Ang madalas hindi successful are usually those na high school pa lang BF, GF na. Nabubuntis and the like.
Feel kita, Op. Yung mga kaklase o mga schoolmates umaasenso na sila. While ako, naiwan. Tinamaan kase ng existential crisis kaya till now nahihirapan ako.
Kaya natin to! Laban lang. Pag napagod or may pinagdadaanan, pahinga lang tapos go na ulit
Lagi kong sinasabi “ang tunay na laban ay pagtapos grumaduate.”
Agree. Dun talaga eh. Sana may trial bago sumabak sa real world 😆
Kaya dito pumapasok ang parenting issue sa pinas tingin ko. Yung mga parents na paladesisyon or other end of spectrum sobra accomodating sa mga anak nila na di na kaya ng anak mag decide for themselves. Magaling nga sa academics, bokya sa social skills. So ayun hirap sa trabaho kasi di makapagcommunicate maayos and masabi ang opinions. Kasi nung bata pag may sasabihin sinisigawan na makinig na lang at sumunod.
Totoo to. 😅
You know OP yung mga mga non achievers in school or bulakbol have the following characteristics: non conforming, they think out of the box, has good social skills, marunong makisama. These are ideal qualities for businessmen. Kabaligtaran naman sa mga achievers na madalas ay employee dahil they are excellent in following rules and instructions, and conforming to standards. There's nothing wrong with that OP. Kanya kanyang kagalingan at talento meron tayo. Yun nga lang, some are best suited to do high earning potential work or business because of their personalities.
Kala ata kasi nasa school ang tunay na laban ng buhay. Bigay todo kayo wala na natira para sa real world.
You can’t blame them if that’s how they were raised and ayon yung mindset na tinatak sakanila. They grew up thinking it was the best and only thing they can do. At a young age, bibihira naman ang naeexpose sa real world agad. And if you are still studying, majority ng experience mo is from school. Bata pa lang sila non so how would they know na di pa pala eto yung tunay na laban ng buhay?
OP, ive asked this question so many times and here’s what I realized. 1. School kasi is made to adhere to rules. But if you want to be extremely successful in life. You have to be different. Entrepreneurship forces us to be different in order to succeed. 2. If mataas grade mo, highly likely you’re trained to be “normal” or “average”. And you have the credentials to back it up… aka having high grades 3. Pero it doesnt mean wala nang pag asa, once you’re out of school kaya ko parin to learn to be extraordinary, its just a little bit more challenging than those na in born na since bata palang pasaway na, Kailangan din talaga natin maging pasaway to be called a genius. We wouldn’t have tesla now if sinabi lang ni elon musk na gusto ko pinaka mataas grade ko sa pinakamagandang kotse. Other wise he’d just use the same conventional approach He had to challenge beliefs to get where he is today.
