 🚀⚡️🚀⚡️🚀 The only limitation to what you can achieve is the limits YOU place upon yourself.

The best is yet to come. 

Here are some of the most successful people in the world's first jobs:

Steve Jobs: assembly line worker
Jeff Bezos: McDonald’s cook
Oprah Winfrey: cashier
Warren Buffett: gum salesman
Elon Musk: boiler room cleaner
Richard Branson: bird breeder
Mark Cuban: garbage bag salesman
Michael Dell: dishwasher

And every single individual above has one thing in common: their unwavering faith in their abilities and their relentless commitment to persevering. #Nostr #Bitcoin #success 🧡💜 https://image.nostr.build/58ee75ed2f47a6c3ada952b0ec92ee44afda70c3d92620ad15cd7773c7717d5b.jpg  
 Agree with the sentiment buuuuut…..
That list is THE DEFINITION of survivorship bias.  

Everyone started out in diapers or had their first shit job. 

Putting Dell, Jobs, Elon and Buffet on the same list as Oprah & Cuban is a mistake I cant stay quiet about.
Mark Cuban is literally the billionaire they’re making fun of in Silicon Valley for inventing internet radio.
