I personally loved this article because it lets others in the same situation know some risks that other people took to reach their ideal career.
I remember graduating college with a 2.9 but that's after being put on academic probation twice because i was burning the candle at both ends. Meaning i was working two jobs to pay for school, but was so tired I didn't do well in school. Not until 2+ years in the military did I start prioritizing what needed to be done. My GPA still wasn't high enough to show my worth, but i was happy with what i accomplished and knew what I can do. This was only a year ago, so I'm still not near my dream career, but my GPA won't stop me. Just one thing checked off on my checklist
I realize after graduating that I only wanted to finish school at the time because of society told me i couldn't have a career unless I did. So instead of going to school for education and learning i just went through the motions.
The basic thing i got from this article was just his willing to share what he went through. It might empower others to purse what they love or not, but one can't be scared to take a risk because you are scared of failure or consider yourself unworthy.
