Lately I’ve come across a blog, Welcome to My Island, what I like about this blog is that the author of this blog has the same goal just like me, to earn money online. The author is very committed in making money online, because he dropped out of his college just to pursue his online money making dreams. Here is a quote that is so true and I like this quote. The author says:

I believe that once someone finds success, they shouldn’t hold onto it and hide it from everyone else. I like the phrase “When you get to the top, send the elevator back down.” If I find success, I don’t want to hold the elevator, I want to send it back down, so others can ride it up.

If you read through this guy’s profile, you will find that many people label him as ‘bum’ because he dropped out of his college. As long as you stick to your dreams and goals, do what you like (within the laws and ethical means of course), and money will follow. Look at Bill Gates, he dropped out from his college as well, but because he keeps on doing what he loves to do, and now he owns a multi-billion company. What I want to say here is that, don’t worry if you are not good in math, maybe you are great in arts, so there must be something that you love to do. Follow your instinct and chase your dreams.
