I read a speech a couple weeks ago and part of it was so wonderfully profound. So for everyone out there worried about getting good grades, or getting into the right school, or climbing the corporate ladder or whatever--stop worrying!
"You will become known for doing what you do.
This may sound obvious, but it is a useful thing to realize. Many people seem to think they must endure a 'rite of passage' which, once passed, will allow them to do the kind of work they want to do. Then they end up disappointed that this day never comes. Find a way to do the work you want to do, even if it means working nights and weekends. Once you've done a handful of excellent things in a given way, you will become known as the person who does excellent things in that given way. And that's the person you want to be, because then people will hire you to be that person."
