A+ Students Working For Dropouts
Feb 21 2008 Motivation 4 comments

Albert Einstein

Dropouts are the bosses and good students are the employees. Sounds twisted doesn’t it? But good grades in school don’t necessarily translate into becoming an entrepreneurial success. In fact, a straight-A student is more likely to be a structured type of individual who follows the rules and might not think outside the box.

Albert Einstein said: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”

That is so true. Straight A students do follow the rules inside the box, creative minds think way out.

There’s plenty of creative and intelligent people who can get an A in every class without limiting their worldview. I don’t get people who think that academia is a huge hurdle to overcome. There are plenty of ways to achieve in your studies even if you don’t agree with what is being taught. If you think a class or a teacher is idiotic, just do the work, get the grade, but do your own research, and develop your own opinions.

Absolutely and proud of it, you know it’s time to leave school when you realize your professors are sometimes failures at their line of work. Why would a successful electrical engineer be working as a low paying teacher instead of working at NASA.
