NO ONE IS SPECIAL
You are not special neither am I. This can either stop you from progressing or help you gain the perspective that no one is born with superpowers, thus your success in life is dependent on your utilized potential.
"Special people" are not born, they are made. It takes smart work, iron self-belief, discipline and a hint of delusional confidence.
You don't get what you deserve, you get what you ask for.
Ask for more.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
