The people that can change their life are not the ones that are smart or intelligent that can think well, can make good arguments.
Most of the people that I deal with are not the smartest, but they just know how to be overconfident in themselves. They are stubborn to stick to the idea and to yield results, when other people are checking out and planning different things because of their logic.
We call them the stubborn ones, they believe in themselves enough to take that risk, to bet on themselves and bet on everything on the future that doesn't exist yet. And hoping that one day something might click and it will surely go.
That is the amount that people need to be successful. Sometimes the most intelligent and smartest might not even be the one that makes it. But those ones that take erratic risk and those ones that are overconfident that
they are willing to go in fully that so thinking about the risk or that thinking or feeling.
