Key takeaways:
The truth about the common advice of following your passion is that the person giving you this advice is already rich.
They also most likely made their billions in iron or smelting.
Ideally find something you like that has 90 plus percent employment rate which things like acting modeling sports do not have.
Then commit to becoming great at it.
So if you find something youre good at and you start making money at it the passion will follow.
The correlation between intelligence and success exists but it tops out.
A person whos got a 120 IQ is much more likely to be successful than someone at 80.
But above that it flatlines.
Plus when you get really really smart it actually turns on you and that is because you become so thoughtful and see so many downsides to everything.
One thing that entrepreneurs have is theyre too stupid to know were going to fail.
