I’ve personally known PhD’s with learning disabilities who excelled where others did not. They told me, independently from each other, that it was determination and hard work that got them ahead of everyone else, not intelligence. They simply worked harder than everyone else. It’s not intelligence that gets you ahead, it’s the effort that you put into it.
Easier said than done. I was never the best student in school at best I only ever got B’s and C’s and I had to repeat the 7th and 9th grade. I was a super senior I graduated at age 20. I understand I’m not as impressive as other people but I’ll be dammed if I didn’t work my ass off for what I’ve got.

I’d hire someone that’ll work their ass off sooner than someone who was a slacking smart ass. Hard work makes the world go around!
