Full Transcript
This is one thing I learnt about being an African in America. I learnt that us Africans are really, really smart people. We are very intelligent. We are able to excel academically. Whenever you put us in any of the academic settings, we are able to work really, really hard in order to succeed. But the one thing that we're lacking is opportunities. And that's the difference between America and Africa. It's the fact that in America, as an African, you can get opportunities, whereas in your home country, most often you do not. And I actually have proof of this. So in South Africa, I was rejected by every university that I applied to. He simply said I didn't have the grades that were required in order to go to those universities. However, when I moved to America, I've been able to go and attend some of the best universities in the world. We're talking about Harvard, Upenn, these Ivy League schools. I've been able to attend them even though I don't have the perfect grades. And this is simply because of the opportunities in this new environment that I'm in. In America, there's a ton of opportunities. And if you are serious about succeeding, then you will succeed. And this is why I advocate that if you are in an environment which doesn't allow you to succeed, you must be leaving that environment. Because if you do, you might just be able to come to America and study at Some of the best schools in the world. And make over six figures while you're in your 20s. So if that's you and you tired about not having opportunities, then definitely give me a follow, so that you can go through some of the content that I'm creating, which will show you a path that you can use in order to come and study in America.
